Companies

The Companies module is used for the administration of your business contacts. It allows you to share information about companies with authorized users and relate these companies with other items in eWay-CRM, including evidence of all details, such as the company specialization, its revenues with your business, first contact, etc.

This article focuses on the basics of the Companies module in eWay-CRM Web. If you want more general information about this module, please go to the description of the module for eWay-CRM Outlook.

Companies List

Clicking the module name in the top part of the eWay-CRM Online page, you get into the companies list.

When you click the link, you will see the list of all items that your user has permission to.

You can search items in the list, filter them, customize the list, etc. For more information about list opinions, go to List of Items Introduction.

Item Preview

When you click an item, its preview panel shows on the right side of the web page where you can see the values of the items and also some relations. For more information about the preview, go to Item Preview.

Project Dialog

Find out basic information about items creating and editing here: Create and Edit Items.

If you want to open an item, just double-click it. You will see similar detail:

Field	Description
Basic Information	The name of the company, data from registers and, for example, specification of your relation with the company - customer, vendor, competitor.
Address	Addresses for invoicing, sending packages and other purposes.
Note	The general text you can add to your company.

When you want to display other fields, customize your dialog, use Form Designer in eWay-CRM Outlook. eWay-CRM Web will display a dialog similar as in Microsoft Outlook, but some differences can happen due to the position of field groups in eWay-CRM Outlook - eWay-CRM Web does not use only the horizontal position of the field group, but the vertical is also important, e.g. when the group is on the right in eWay-CRM Outlook but it is higher than the group on the left, it is displayed higher in eWay-CRM Web.
