- Select the status and task type that you want your list to contain.
- If you just want a pop-list to select from then press Enter.
- If you want a text file list then press Ctrl-G. Note that you can have the file made in HTML format by checking the HTML Format checkbox.
Single task
To generate a file containing information on a single task (the current task) press Ctrl-B (HTML format) or Shift-Ctrl-B (TXT format).
Person List
To generate a list of all pending tasks for a single person (the current person) press Ctrl-P (HTML format) or Shift-Ctrl-P (TXT format). This list will include tasks of status Open, Waiting on client and Waiting on supplier.
If you just want to include a list in a mail to your customer or supplier I have found that the best layout is reached like this:
- Generate the list in HTML Format
- Open the file in the web browser
- Select the entire page (Ctrl-A)
- Copy the page (Ctrl-C)
- Paste the page into a mail (Ctrl-V)
Preferences for Documents
The following two preferences will influence the generation of documents. These can be set in the Preference dialog (Ctrl-K):
Title: The value of this preference will be placed on the top of all generated documents. Use this to setup you company name.
Delay: This preference holds the delay used after starting up the Web Browser before opening the generated document. If you exeprience that the document is not opened correctly the first time the web browser is started up then increse the delay.

This section describes how the Customer Relation Manager is intended to be used.
Customer Relation Manager is a program for maintaining communications on customer tasks and making reports based on the registered customer and task information.
Customer Relation Manager lets you register:
- Company inforation on the companies that you are in contact with.
- User information on the users/customers that you communicate with.
- Task information on the customer task that you are handling. The type of task can be Support Task, Enhancement request or Contract Negotiation. You can keep track of status information on each task (Open, Waiting on client, Waiting on supplier, Completed or Cancelled).
- Public notes and Internal notes on the progress of the customer tasks.
- Product information on the products you are selling, reselling, supporting etc. Each task can be related to a product and each product is related to a supplier (Companies can be marked as suppliers).
Based on this information the program can generate:
- Task reports on specific customer tasks.
- Lists of all active tasks of a specific user.
- Lists of all tasks of a specific status.
- Lists of all tasks related to a specific product or a specific supplier.
The main screen shows all the information related to a single customer task. The screen is divided into the following sections:
- Company section
- Person section
- Task section
- Notes section
These will be explained in the following chapters.

Problems
--------
1. Read only files
Some times files become read only while being installed. None of the files should be read only. If you get any errors like the program is unable to write information to your Psion go through the program files to see if some of them are read only.
In the system-view you can open the file property window by selecting (highlighting) a file and pressing Ctrl-P. In the property window you can see and set/clear the read only checkbox.
2. Copying between C and D
Be very careful when you move or copy applications between the C and D drives. It seems that the Psion is not correctly updated when applicaions are copied from C to D or vice versa.
Always delete the application directory from one drive before reinstalling on the other drive.
3. Low on battery
When starting up this program for the first time a lot of writing is done to the disk. If your machine is low on battery these writes can go wrong and turn the application files bad. This should only be an issue when running the application the first time.
4. Not enough memory
This program needs up to 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive. If you try to run the program with less than 300 Kb of free memory on the C drive it may not behave as expected.
