As of the June 2026 release, “User Groups” have been renamed to “Teams” throughout the Latchel platform. The steps, button labels, and screenshots below still reflect the previous “User Group” naming — the underlying functionality is unchanged, but you may see “Team” or “Teams” in place of “User Group” in your account.

Configuring Teams at the Company Level

The Teams at the Company Level will automatically apply to all portfolios and properties on the account unless there are individual assignments made at the property or portfolio level.

To learn more about configuration inheritance and how to override company-level configurations, see Configuration Inheritance (Property, Portfolio, & Company Level).
Click on the drop-down at the top right-hand side of your screen. Select Account Settings from the menu.

To set the Team to receive all of Latchel’s email notifications on the Company Level, click the Details tab. Under the Maint. Communication Settings, click the dropdown under the Default Notification User Group field and select the User Group. Click Save. If you don’t see the User Groups you need to refresh the page so they get populated.

Configuring a User Group (Portfolio Level)

The User Group at the Portfolio Level will automatically be applied to all properties within that portfolio.

To learn more about configuration inheritance and how a single property can override Portfolio and company-level configurations, see Configuration Inheritance (Property, Portfolio, & Company Level).
Click the Places tab and then, click Portfolios. Then, search or select the portfolio that you want to edit.
