portalEnabledboolean

This flag determines if the Vendor can access a Vendor Portal to manually interact with Inventory/PO flows. If this flag is `true` - there is still a requirement to ensure you have a portal configured. To configure a Vendor Portal, you have to setup a subdomain such as : `example.vendors.flxpoint.com` You can either do this via the UI (feature launching in late 2021) or via a ticket to our Support Team.
