Client & Project - Lists
This module contains information of all your clients and projects.
Default view is one called Client and Projects. You see a list of all clients in the left part. When you click on a client, all its’ projects are shown on the right screen side.
If you tick All projects, instead you will see a list of all projects, irrespective of clients.
By ticking Due projects you will see projects that have reached deadline. Also projects with an Invoice date that have no invoice printed out. This is only shown for project- and production managers of a project.
Tables
Marathon’s tables are very flexible for changes regarding their look. You can select which columns you want to see, in what order they will be seen, their width and how they shall be sorted.
The settings are saved for future logins.
Any setting that deals with how Marathon looks are personal and do not change anything to any other user.

Selections

Only mine - Own clients/projects are ones where you are client manager and/or project-/product manager.
Favourites
The Favourites function is available in most of the tables in Marathon and means that each user can select her/his own favorite posts.
Buttons
