After entering a new company or contact | ||||||||||||||||||
After you have entered a new contact or company into TCM they will be indexed during idle time on your computer. For this reason you may find that if you search for someone immediately after adding them you don't get any matches when you search for them. The reason for this is because your computer hasn't had chance to add them to the index. To add the new contact or company to the index immediately double click on the 'Background processing' icon that you will find to the right of the TCM user name that you can see on the TCM status bar. | ||||||||||||||||||
