Meetings Customizations

    Module customization enables you to set defaults and set up workflow routing, where applicable, for the Meetings business processes. There are two types of defaults:

    • Client level defaults are set in MaintenanceData MaintenanceModule Customization.
    • Project level defaults are set by selecting the Customize button within the Module.

    Available customization choices at the Project level are similar to the Client level, with a few exceptions.

    • Use the Customize button on the Meetings log to establish defaults for numbering and other attributes by project. For example, you want to mark the Subject line "mandatory." Selecting the Attributes tab, and marking the Required checkbox, will not allow the user to save a meeting unless he entered a subject. The Subject field on the General tab will be marked with a red asterisk.
