Important: alio Employee Service Portal (ESP) and alio Vendor Portal (VP) share many of the same system preferences because both applications share the same software platform. These fields are marked with an asterisk (*) in the General Preference Settings table.

The changes will display the next time the alio Employe Service Portal administrator or alio Vendor Portal administrator logs into the appropriate application. |
