#REDIRECT [[Customize Customer Portal]]
{{IntroAndLinks|The Portal Accounts are used to configure the security access for a portal.  There are two included Portal Accounts that are preconfigured and ready for use.  One for the Customer Portal, and another for the Service Portal. Providing individual access to Contacts is done from within the [[Guest Accounts]]. While there is the ability to edit these and create new Portal Accounts, no configuration is required in order to enable the Customer or Service Portals. |
