Use CounterGo Orders In Systemize

When transitioning to using Orders previously scheduled Jobs will not have been created from Orders, and Job information may be contained in Job Forms like Area (Room) Details. For a short time, you may have to have duplicate tracking square footage in Calendar Views pulling information from Job Forms and pulling information from Order Area Details.

Adding the new Order Area Form to existing Activity Packets allows for printing the Order Area information pulled from a Quote directly in printed packets.

If you rely on Reports to track things like the total square footage installed per month, we recommend duplicating that Report and modifying it to calculate square footage from the Order Area Details until you are creating all Jobs from Orders.

Admin Users will want to update Roles to allow Users additional functionality related to Orders.
