Keeping contacts up-to-date

In case you have already logged in to the portal and been using it for some time, to access the CRM module from any portal page, use the drop-down list in the top left corner of the page and select the corresponding option.

Your customer database can include as many contacts as you wish whether your customers are big companies or single individuals.

By default, all the available companies and persons are displayed in the Contacts list. To find a necessary contact make use of our filter at the top of the list.

Click the button and select one of the options:

• MANAGER is used to display the contacts assigned to you or to any other CRM user;
• CREATION DATE is used to display the contacts with the creation date within the specified period of time: Last month, Yesterday, Today, This month or any other custom period;
• ACCESSIBILITY is used to display all public or restricted contacts;
• SHOW is used to display all companies or all persons only, or show the contacts with opportunities;
• TEMPERATURE LEVEL is used to display the contacts of a certain temperature level only. The default levels are: cold, warm or hot;
• CONTACT TYPES is used to display the contacts of a certain type only. The default types are: Client, Competitor, Partner, Supplier;
• WITH TAG is used to display the contacts with a specified tag only.

You can also enter a contact name, entirely or partially, in the Filter field and press the Enter key to find the necessary one. To facilitate the search use the wildcards:

• use the question mark ? to perform the single-character wildcard search. For example, when you use the Sm?th query, it will return results for Smith and Smyth.
• use the asterisk * to perform the multiple-character wildcard search. For example, to search for all the words beginning with O, use the O* query.
• use the double quotes "" to focus the results on words that appear as an exact phrase.
• use the tilde ~ at the end of the word to search for the words similar in spelling.

When the necessary contact is located click its title to open the contact information page.
