Project definitionWhenever a customer uploads one or more parts towards placing a request, a quote or an order, a new project is created. This project houses all subsequent related requests, quotes or orders, towards successfully finalizing the project with a paid-for & shipped order.
In a practical sense, a Project is hierarchical one level above requests/quotes/orders and aggregating all information from lower levels. The project views therefore group all info from individual steps into one place, providing a comprehensive overview of the most important information. Project listThe project list can be accessed in the service panel through Projects in the main navigation bar.  In the table displaying the active projects  As usual you can search, filter and edit which columns you would like to see. Project linked in requests / quotes / ordersYou can find the linked project in the service panel in every request, quote or order linked in the middle panel.  Project detail viewAfter selecting a project, you move on into the project detail view. This offers a comprehensive overview of all the relevant activities and objects within a project. On top you can find the latest transaction  All the attachments from the different requests/quotes/orders are shown in the attachments table - filtering out duplicates.  All the comments are also shown, across all requests/quotes/orders belonging to the project, at the bottom of the project detail view. They are grouped per sales transaction.  |
