The CRM or the Customer Relations Management section in JGID is a key important feature that allows you to create, expand and keep up-to-date your company’s client data base furhter enhancing the process of managing the different stages and the relevant document feed regarding any project your company has ever started or is about to start.
The CRM is a powerful process management tool that allows you to quickly refer to any relevant information regarding any service, performed at any time for any client once JGID has been integrated.
You have the flexibility to invoice to either the Client, or the Contact or the Location. You can have multiple Location entries for one Client, which is especially useful when dealing with Strata Plans. You can have different Contacts for one Client which gives you the freedom of quoting to the Management department, yet sending the invoice to the Accounting department all this done from one platform, easily managed with couple of mouse clicks.
If your company is using the Xero accounting software, once you invoice a client, even if the client is not entered into Xero previously, it will now be automatically listed into Xero’s Client data base too, eliminating the double up data entry.
