Primary advisor ownership helps an agency work from one shared client pool without losing sight of who owns each relationship day to day.
In an agency, every active advisor can work shared agency clients according to the client's agency consent. The primary advisor field does not limit visibility by itself. It controls book filters, task routing, and the ownership label shown on client records.
What the Primary Advisor Means
The primary advisor is the relationship owner for a shared client or prospect. Use it to answer: "Whose book is this record in right now?"
Primary advisor ownership affects:
- My book filters on client, prospect, and CRM views
- Advisor-specific filters for agency members
- Ownership labels on client detail pages
- Task and alert routing where a client-level owner is needed
It does not change the client's consent. Agency-shared records remain part of the agency pool.
