Retarus Fax Portal Overview

Introduction

Retarus Enterprise Fax Portal homepage

The Enterprise Fax Portal homepage is the first page you see when you log into the fax portal. It gives you access to any faxboxes assigned to you, the folders set up within your assigned faxboxes, and the inbound and outbound fax messages in each of your faxboxes.

Your available options and faxboxes are determined by the role assigned to you by your organization’s administrator.

  • The Enterprise Fax Portal homepage is divided into four main sections.
