The customer portal

What your customers see when they sign in — and how to control it.

Last updated 22 September 2026 · More in Customers & sales

The portal is the part of IDup your customers actually touch. It removes a large share of the “any update?” e-mails, because the answer is on a page they can open themselves.

What a customer sees

  • Their dashboard, with the counts that concern them.
  • Their Invoices, Estimates, Proposals and Contracts, each with its status.
  • Their Projects — but only the parts you marked visible.
  • Support — the tickets they opened and your replies.
  • The Knowledge base you published.
  • Their Profile and the Privacy & policy page.
  • Where you run them: the product catalogue and their orders, and equipment assigned to them.

Giving a contact access

  1. Open the customer, then the contact.
  2. Switch on portal access for that contact and set what they may see.
  3. Save. They can set a password and sign in.
  4. Separately, tick Invite to the IDup app if you also want chat, appointments and push with them.

Deciding what is visible

Visibility is per item, not global. A project, a file, a task or a ticket can be marked visible to the customer or kept internal, so you can work in the open where it helps and privately where it does not.
