Online Access to the Introducer Portal
A contact who is also an Introducer can access the Introducer Portal. Activate the Online Access tab and enter a user name (alternatively use the link Insert Email Address (yellow highlight) to set the user name to the introducer's email details recorded in the Main tab (green highlight).
Press the Reset Password and Send Login Details button. The Introducer will receive separate emails confirming the User Name set and a one-time password together with a link to the Introducer Portal Login page. Before access is provided to the Introducers Portal page the one-time only password must be replaced with a new password known only to the Introducer.
Resetting an Introducer Password
Should the introducer forget their password this page can also be used to perform a Password Reset. Press the Reset Password and Send Login Details button. The Introducer will receive separate emails confirming the User Name set and a new one-time password together with a link to their Introducer Portal Login page. Before access is provided to the Introducers Portal page the one-time only password again must be replaced with a new password known only to the Introducer.
Blocking Access to the Introducer Portal
By default the Introducer will always have access to their Portal page. To remove access to the portal activate the check box Block Introducer Access. To reinstate access to the Portal for the Introducer, deactivate the check box and press Reset Password and Send Login Details button (disabling Portal access automatically cancels the introducers password so a new password needs to be generated).
