Companies

Use this function to set up a company or companies. A company can be a division, a branch, or a site. A company can have 1 or a multiple sites.

Tab Contacts

Use this tab to list the contact persons of the company in the contacts table. The full contact information linked to the name are displayed next to the grid.

In order to add a new contact:

  • select an existing Contact (relationship) or
  • create a new contact:
    - you can enter a code and detailed information about this contact,
    - you can also simply enter the detailed information as the code is automatically created when saving the record.
    In both cases, the contact is automatically recorded in the Contacts table.

The contacts management, based on Contacts (relationships), ensures that each individual record is unique. A contact with a particular role can be recorded as one Contact among many companies, sites or BPs. Based on the record of one contact, you can indeed create relationships across records, provided they have a Contact tab.

SEEINFO However, a contact considered as a relationship can only be recorded as a person or individual. Only identification information such as the last name, first name, date of birth and cell phone number are common to the contact (relationship) record and to the details entered at the general contact level.
Other information such as the address, email address, landline number and fax number are managed separately between the relationship contact and each one of his/her contacts. At relationship level, the information is considered as being personal; at general contact level, the information is considered as being professional.
