Projects

The Projects module provides evidence and administration of contracts and projects. For some projects arrange a request for a subsidy, while others create projects for manufacturing and delivering contracts. Projects in eWay-CRM are very flexible and everyone can set their work process.

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

Projects List

Clicking the module name in the top part of the eWay-CRM Online page, you get into the projects 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 item creation and editing here: Create and Edit Items.

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

Field	Description
Basic Information	The name of the project, customer, contact person, and the project type.
Estimates	The basic time and financial analysis of estimated costs and revenues.
Actuals	The actual costs and revenues. You can compare them with estimates and analyze future usage.
Billing Details	Some basic data for the invoices.
Product	If the product is an output of the project, you can specify its basic data.
Note	The general text you can add to your project.

When you want to display other fields or customize your dialog, use Form Designer in eWay-CRM Desktop. eWay-CRM Online displays a dialog similar to Microsoft Desktop, but some differences can happen due to the position of field groups in eWay-CRM Desktop - eWay-CRM Online 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 Desktop but it is higher than the group on the left, it is displayed higher in eWay-CRM Online.
