How to Switch Between your Vault and Portal

Modified on: Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 9:43 AM


Roles: Administrator, Representative | Portal Type: 2-Tier, 3-Tier

If you are:

  • A Representative in a 2-Tier portal, or

  • A 3-Tier user with a Vault at the Head Office tier and a role (Admin or Rep) in another Portal tier

You can switch between your Vault view and Portal view without logging out.

Switching ensures you are working in the correct environment before managing vaults or reviewing documents.

Before You Begin

  • You must have both Vault access and Portal access assigned.

  • You must be logged into the system.



Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 — Open the Account Menu

  1. Click your name in the top-right corner of the screen.

  2. Locate the Accounts section in the dropdown menu.

Step 2 — Select the Environment

  1. Under Accounts, you will see your name listed multiple times. Each listing is labeled by environment:
    • Vault

    • Portal

  2. Click the environment you would like to access.
    The system will switch immediately.
