    Important Note

    Your agreement choice for a client can be changed once you set it here. We do not recommend selecting "No Agreement" unless this is for a free client. Choosing “No Agreement” will lock the client profile from being able to have their agreement reset.

  7. Select English or Spanish as the Portal Language for your client’s onboarding process
