Companies & Contacts

Clients (= contractors) can be companies as well as individuals.
Recording clients
Clients are recorded under "Companies" or imported collectively when starting with MOCO.
The optional Google extension allows for a faster recording of companies.

In the submenu of the client (1) you can find all relevant listings.
Address handling
The client master data is designed for invoicing. Therefore, the address and email you enter for the client should be the invoice address. Because invoices usually go to a fixed address and are impersonal. The invoice address at the client level can be overwritten in the project under "Invoicing" or in the invoice itself. Postal addresses play a lesser role within MOCO and can be accommodated in the "Additional information" field or supplemented as a data extension through a custom field.

For proposals, you select the contact at the top right of the recipient. The address and email of the contact are then set automatically. Often, within a client, proposals go to different contacts.
Notes & Files
Below the client details, information and files (e.g., a contract) about the client can be stored under "Notes and Files" for traceability. This forms the history.
"More options" in the client form (Edit - 2) should be noted – they contain advanced information and settings that are less important for the initial recording. For example, discount, cash discount, individual footer text, differing hourly rates (a new tab appears after selection - 3), invoicing note, debtor number, etc.
Supplement data, Labels (Tags)
With Custom Fields, the master data can be individually supplemented or expanded. With Labels (1), categorization or marking is possible. Application examples can also be found in this topic area under Organization.
Tagging or labeling can be done per company – or collectively after selecting several companies.
Labels as well as Custom Fields are also included in the export and useful for further individual evaluations.

Customer = Supplier?
If a company is both a customer and a supplier, currently in MOCO, two companies are created for this purpose.

Export
Suppliers can be exported (2) as an Excel file via the corresponding symbol at the top right.
Labels as well as Custom Fields are part of the export, which is useful for individual evaluations.
Other Companies
A company that is not yet a client or a supplier is referred to in MOCO as an "Other Company". For example, this could be a company with which there has already been contact regarding a Proposal but no project commitment exists yet.
Other Companies are recorded under "Companies" or imported.
If you want to 'sort out' clients, they can be changed from "Client" back to "Other Company". All Invoices and archived projects remain intact.

Assignment to a company
- Contact is automatically listed with labels at the customer or company.
- The address of the associated company is (in the background) adopted unless a different one is specified directly at the person. The name is then inserted on the second line (unless preset differently at the customer – see small blue link below the address field).
- Automatically assigned to the grouping "Customers", "Supplier", etc.
