- Company Listing shows Pricing Plan, Create Date, and Expiry Date. A new company is dated to expire one year after it is created.
- The prices on the public site are per company, per year. Extra companies, and what happens when Expiry Date arrives, are arranged with KinraSoft.
- The organization owner can open the companies in the firm. Everyone else sees a company in Switch Company only when they belong to a user group on that company and the login is enabled.

- Click Switch Company.
- Type the company name in Select Company and choose it.
