Fields with the create new symbol  are customizable to your business.  They can be modified as needed later on under the Administration tab.

While creating a new account you will have the following fields to complete:

Name:  The Account Name or it could also be a unique identifier

If you are working with a small company at which the Service Location and the accounts payable function (who pays you) for your client are at the same location, (and might even be the same person who you work with day to day). The name of the Account and the Service Location are likely to be the same.

However, for larger organizations, they often have many divisions and the accounts payable function might be in a different city from the Service Location at which you are providing service.  In these, situations the Account Name is usually the legal name of the division.  For example, GE has many divisions and legal entities.  In my prior life as a building services contractor, we listed each Accounts Payable office as separate Account.  We had GE Jet Engines, GE Energy, GE Capital all as separate accounts and we attached all the Service Locations to the entity that managed the facility.

The address information entered is for the Accounts Payable function or whoever you need to contact when invoices were approved and processed inside the client's company but are still not paid.

Account TypeYou can lookup previously used account types or add a new type.  This is 100% defined by your company to categorize the account types that you use to organize your company information.  Many companies use this to identify the organization type that they are servicing.  For example, one company's list looks like the following:

·         Multi-tenant Office Building managed by CBRE

·         Multi-tenant Office Building managed by owner

·         Multi-tenant Office Building managed by Ackerman

·         Medical Office

·         Professional Office - not medical

·         Distribution Facility

·         Manufacturing Facility

·         Big Box Retail

·         Auto Sales & Service Facility

Campaign:  For your use to track how you won the account.  Examples include:  website, email marketing, customer referral, March 15th Mailer, etc.

Account Status:  For your use to track the status of the account. Examples include:  pending, active, terminated, etc.

Term:  This is the Accounts Payable terms that you have agree to with your client.  Examples include:  Net 30, Net 60, Due Upon Receipt, etc.

Sales Tax ID:  This is for your use to track sales tax codes or information and to pass this on to your accounting system (through export or sync to QuickBooks desktop versions).  Please note that this field is at the account level and often with services sales tax or VAT is calculated at the point of service and not where the administrative offices are located.

SalesRep Name:  For your use if you want to track who brought in which accounts.  SalesRep are selected from the employee table that is maintained under the Administrative Tab and who are listed as active.

Branch Name:  Branches are used as a permissions filter. Often the branches are offices for larger organizations and Operations Managers for smaller organizations but it is entirely up to your company to decide how to use this grouping feature. Here are two examples:

A large national organization has each office listed as a branch and all of their national accounts listed.  They have (a part of their list is shown):

·         Denver

·         Las Vegas

·         Los Angeles

·         San Francisco

·         Portland

·         Seattle

·         IBM

·         Wells Fargo

·         Walmart

Another smaller single city player has their branches listed by the 4 Operations Managers that they have geographically distributed to cover their accounts:

·         Eddie Escobar

·         Lloyd Simmons

·         Kathy Butler
