How to manage Client Portal organizations?
This guide is for instance administrators in Constructor: group portal clients into organizations (for example, employees of the same company) and manage client card assignments.
When you need this
- In B2B, several Support Portal users belong to one company but have separate accounts.
- You need to prepare a client group before enabling shared ticket visibility within an organization.
- You need to retire an organization from active use without deleting clients or portal users.
What to know
- The Organizations page appears only after you enable Client Portal settings (Constructor) and Client Portal organizations (Constructor) under Instance settings → Feature flags.
- Menu path: Settings → Client Portal → Organizations.
- Support Portal end users do not manage organizations — only administrators in Constructor.
- You can Deactivate an organization at any time; clients remain in the system; only the active organization link is affected.
- A dedicated role permission applies: Client Portal organizations (view / save) — separate from generic Operator Panel settings.
For ticket visibility details, see Organization and ticket scope.
Before you start
Step-by-step
1. Enable the organizations page
- Open Settings → Instance settings.
- Under Feature flags, expand Client Portal.
- Enable Client Portal settings (Constructor) if it is still off.
- Enable Client Portal organizations (Constructor).
- Refresh Constructor if needed.
2. Open Organizations
- Go to Settings → Client Portal → Organizations.
- Confirm you see Organizations and Clients without organization tabs.
If the menu item is disabled, check feature flags and Client Portal organizations in roles.
3. Create an organization
- Click Create organization (or Create organization from selected on the unassigned clients tab).
- Fill in Name; Alias is optional (unique identifier for integrations).
- Save — the organization drawer opens with Overview, Clients, Portal users, and Visibility preview.
4. Assign clients
- In the organization drawer, open Clients, or use Clients without organization on the list page.
- Search by email, phone, or name.
- Select clients and click Assign selected.
- If a warning about organization scope appears, confirm only after you understand the impact (see scope explanation).
To unassign a client, use Unassign on the client row (the portal user account is not deleted).
5. Check visibility preview
- In the organization drawer, open Visibility preview.
- Confirm the expected Ticket scope (Client only or Organization, depending on the instance organization-access flag).
- Review client, portal user, and ticket counts in the preview.
6. Deactivate or reactivate
- On the organizations list, enable Show inactive if you need a deactivated row.
- For an active organization — Deactivate and confirm (an extra warning appears when organization ticket access is enabled on the instance).
- For an inactive one — Reactivate.
After deactivation, portal users again see only tickets for their linked client, even if clients remain associated with the organization record.
How to verify
- The organization appears in the list with status Active or Inactive.
- Clients in the drawer lists the expected assignments.
- Visibility preview matches your scenario (client-only vs organization), given the organization-access flag.
