New page

On this tab, you can track the site, billing and mailing address using the tabs along the left. All of these addresses can be the same or they could all be different.

'''If the site, billing and mailing information is the same:'''

# Fill out the '''Site''' tab with the company and address information.
# Select the '''Billing''' tab.
# Click '''Set From Site''' (circled in image below).
# The address from the Site tab will populate the Billing tab.
# Select the '''Mailing''' tab.
# Click '''Set From Site'''.
# The address from the Site tab will populate the Mailing tab.

In some cases you may have one customer you are working with and you have multiple job sites for them. You can create a parent child relationship. If you do this, you could look up the parent company and find all of the related “child” companies.

To create a parent – child company structure:

First, create a company record for the “parent” company. Usually the information on the Site and Billing tab for the parent is going to be the same. When that is created, you can then create the "child".

# Create a company record for the “child” company.
# On the '''Site''' tab, enter the job site information.
# In the “child” record, select the '''Billing''' tab.
# Click '''Select Billing Company'''.
# In the window that displays, select the billing or “parent” company.
# Click S'''ave''' in the "child" company record.
# Notice the '''Full Name''' for the “child” company.

'''To see all “child’ companies for the “parent” company'''

# Select the “parent” company.
# Select the '''Associated Companies''' tab.
# All related “child” companies will be listed.

'''To add a contact to a company record'''

# Click your cursor in the '''Contact''' field.
# Type the contact name.
# Tab to the next field and the '''Contact Editor''' will display. (image on the right)
# Fill out the contact information.
# Click '''OK'''.
