Defining Portals

This portal is used to view and maintain the configuration of portals. An implementation may define their own portals or may override some of the settings for base product provided portals.

You can access the portal from the Admin Menu > System > Portal. You are brought to a query portal with options for searching for a specific record. Once a portal record has been selected you are brought to the maintenance portal to view and maintain the selected record.
