Clients, contacts and homes

Workflow 06 · Clients · Contacts · Homes · Lifecycle

A client is the person or company that pays; its contacts are the people you talk to, and its homes are where the work happens.

Each record keeps its history: nothing is deleted, and a status decides what new work is allowed.
