However, Admin Portal is (at the moment) access for permanent staff only.
I liked the idea of everything moving from SMS to Units though. SMS is a nightmare to get into, and times out really quickly, whereas Units used your M365 credentials and stayed signed in.

Volunteer Portal works in the same way as Units, so no change there.

Indeed, but a lot of stuff that I feel belongs in VP (i.e. anything to do with managing myself) has to be done in SMS.
Fixed that for you.
The plan is to retire SMS one day.
I’m betting on 2039, but things are moving slowly.

That can’t come soon enough. I actively avoid having to use SMS, but there’s stuff like event notifications that only appear in there (whereas clearly, you being selected for an event, should be notified in VP or — more ideally — via an app).
