Organisational chart

With the help of the organizational chart, contacts from individual companies can be displayed in a tree structure. Departments and the associated people can be displayed clearly. People/contacts can be moved within departments using the practical drag & drop function.

Organization charts can be found at Settings – Contacts – Org Chart Fields create.

Here you can define exactly which fields should be displayed in your org chart. To do this, simply use the mouse to drag the fields from the left column "Attributes" to the right column "Displayed Fields".

How to create a new contact type step by step can be found under the menu item "Define contact types yourself"
