PlanningPME enables managing your meetings and on-site activities on clients’ premises. The number of clients is limitless.

This function needs to be activated if you need to assign a client each time you create a new task and you wish to see the name of the client with whom you are working displayed on the screen.

First activate the option in the menu Parameters -> Options -> Data and select "Activate customers".
You now have a "Client" menu under "Data".

To create a new client, click on "Add". Here you can enter all the information contained in the client record: Company name, contact person, physical address, e-mail address, etc.

To delete a client, select the name in the list, tick the box and click on "Delete". To modify a client, click directly on the client name in the list and modify the content

When creating a task, you may select the client directly in the drop-down list in the "quick creation" window or from the full window. 

You may view the client in the task description if you have selected the appropriate field in the menu Data -> Task description -> Label

When creating a task from the main window, you may create a client by clicking directly on the icon: 
The details in the client record will be displayed and you may create your new client by clicking on "Add". 

Your new client is now created and visible in the task window:

Once the client is selected, this icon enables having direct access to the client information without having to go through the menu Data -> Clients

You may also display the client view using the drop-down menu on the right-hand side encircled below or you may display the tasks associated with a single client by using the “client” filter at the top of the scheduling window (as shown below).

In order to facilitate the operation and settings of the planning tool, you can now import your own data directly, such as resources, customers and projects. This will allow you to integrate your elements into the schedule and will save you precious time.

Tutorial - Importing data

Rather than have a long drop-down list of clients, you may also activate “intuitive entry” in order to select a client rapidly by entering the first few letters of the label. For more information on the intuitive entry function .
