How it works in practice

01

Every business relationship in one searchable directory

Customers, suppliers, vendors, employees, service providers — all in one place. No separate supplier spreadsheet, no disconnected employee list. When you need a contact, you search once.

  • Single directory for Customer, Supplier, Vendor, Employee and Service Provider accounts
  • Account type controls which modules the account can be linked to
  • Search by name, GST number, city or account type

02

GST and PAN validation — compliance built into creation

GST number format is validated when creating a customer or supplier account. PAN is stored and validated per Indian format. Multiple addresses (billing, shipping, site) are supported per account — essential for HVAC projects where bill-to and install-to addresses differ.

  • GST number format validated on account creation — catches errors at source
  • PAN stored and validated per Indian format
  • Multiple address types per account: billing, shipping, site / installation

Accounts / Directory FAQ

Common questions

Yes. Each account can have multiple contact persons — name, email, phone, designation. You can designate a primary contact per account for communications.

Yes. The format is validated (15-character alphanumeric, matching Indian GST structure) when the account is created or edited. This catches common entry errors before they flow into invoices or purchase orders.

Yes. Ownership control means reps see only the accounts assigned to them. Managers see the full directory. The Settings & Roles module lets you configure exactly what each role can view, create, edit and delete.

Client portal access is on the product roadmap. Currently, employees can be invited as users from the Accounts directory. Customer portal for viewing invoices and delivery challans is planned for a future release.
