NexJ CRM user experience enhancements

This release includes the following enhancements to the user experience.

Creating new entities from selection dialogs

Users are now able to create a new entity from within a selection dialog if the target entity does not already exist. The following cases are available:

  • Contact - create a new Company
  • Company - create a new Parent company
  • Schedule Item, Task, Document, Call Record - create a new entity in the For field
  • Opportunity, Service Request - create a new entity in the For field or in the Contacts tab

The following screenshot shows how when you are adding a new contact you can also add a new company by clicking the Add a new item button

in the Select a company dialog, entering the company information in the New Company dialog, and saving your changes to add the required company.
