4.    Click Add Email to enter email addresses. The dropdown in the first column is to define if the email is Family, Personal, Primary, Spouse or Work. The second column can be customized to further identify the email.  Notice in the Fig. 24 below that the first email is defined as Spouse and the second column has been customized to show his name, Justin. The default for the second column is the first column’s identifier. Again, the example below shows Personal as the default for the second email listed.

 

NOTE: Be sure to note which email is the Primary, or the main email to be used for email communications.

5.    On the right side of the ORDER INFORMATION card, enter details for ORDER DETAILS.  Enter the Branch, which is mandatory as denoted by the red asterisk. Once the Branch is defined, the remaining fields will be available. The Branch must be entered as the Branch determines the options available in the fields.

 

6.    If you would like the order to appear on your Order List on your Homepage, enter your name in the appropriate role. Sally Brown has been entered for Transportation Coordinator and, when this becomes an order, it will appear on her Homepage Order List.

 

7.    At this point, since this is a Lead, under Please select the order Type, check the Lead box. Checking Lead triggers an Estimate Number to be generated. If Lead is not checked, it will still have Lead as its Status. If it is a foreign order, check the box for Foreign Order to capture this information for searches and certain reports in MoversSuite.
