Client contacts are the people who request new jobs, approve creative, authorize payment of your invoices.
Any new work should be opened as a job ticket, as it happens. A job ticket can be opened anytime after it is conceived, and certainly before the work begins. It's important to open new jobs as soon as possible, since purchase orders and time can't be tracked without a job number.

It’s common for clients to track what they spend by project, program, or some other kind of category. When a new job is opened for a client, you can enter one of these codes into the project field. To keep your job tracking more consistent, you can establish a standard list of projects for each client.
A client project acts as an umbrella to tie a group of job tickets together. This makes finding, printing, and sorting jobs by project faster and easier. However, some set up is involved in order to get the most out of client project features in Clients & Profits.
🔹To see & use projects for a client, choose My > My Clients then click on the Projects tab.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
• Each client account can have dozens of different projects.
• Projects are optional, so you don’t have to set up project names for each client.
• Client projects have no affect on the General Ledger.
• Invoices, estimates, and change orders can be emailed to client contacts if they have an email address.
✳️ The word "project" is customizable as a system-wide preference. To rename the term 'project,' choose Preferences from the Setup menu, then select the option to change the Names preferences. You can enter any kind of term for "project" here (e.g., campaign). Once saved, the new term will appear everywhere -- on windows, menus, and reports -- in place of the word "project." Keep in mind, however, that the same project label applies to all clients. The word can be renamed in the Customize Names window.

📎 There's a project lookup list Choose Client Projects from the Lookup menu to see a list of projects anywhere you’re working. The Client Projects lookup list (choose Lookup > Client Projects) shows all projects for all clients. Projects can be sorted by clicking on the column headings. New projects can also be added from the Projects lookup list.
📎 You can share projects between clients, if the setting in Preferences is enabled. This allows them to get emails sent from Clients & Profits for estimates, change orders, approval requests, homeBase discussions, and job billings. Any client contact without an email address will be skipped.
⚠️ It doesn’t cost anything to add an account for every client contact. You only have to pay extra for client contacts who benefit from using the Projectr web app.
