Client & Project - Lists
This module contains information of all your clients and projects.
In the first page you can 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. Select this view by tick the box Show: Client and Projects.
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.

If you want to move the columns in another order, drag and drop the column heading to the place you wish, Marathon moves the underlying columns so that they won’t get over each other. Pull the column borders to adjust the column width.
You can select how to sort the column contents. When you select a column, an arrow appears next to the heading. Click on the arrow to change its position. Arrow up means that the biggest values are shown first and arrow down that the smallest values are shown on top.

Enter new clients and projects
New clients and projects can be entered directly in Client & Project. (New entries have to be activated by an administrator in Classic and you must have authorisation on user level.)
The fields to be shown are selected in the system parameters- therefore the view in your company can differ from the view in this manual.
New client
Click New in the client list. Fill in the field Client ID and press OK.
You can copy previously entered information from another client. Click the button “Copy from” andselect the client you want to copy from. The function copies all information and writes it in the fields (it writes over possible earlier text), you can then edit the data before you save.
| Client ID | The client’s unique identity. Maximum four (4) digits |
| Name | The complete name of the client, shown on invoices etc. |
| Internal name | The internal name can be used to identify the client with another, internal, name. The name is shown as client name in Marathon, but the client’s real name will be printed on invoices. |
| Client manager | Marathon suggests you as client manager, but you can of course change name. |
| Client contact | Contact person at the client. |
| Collective client | You can use Collective clients to tie together different clients, e.g. different branches of a client. E.g. Volvo can be collective client for Volvo Göteborg and Volvo Stockholm. (Collective clients are set in Base registers/Pro). |
| Category | You can divide clients in to categories and use for statistics |
| VAT | Enter what type of VAT the client represents: |
| Domestic: Ordinary VAT for domestic clients | |
| EU: VAT free for clients within the EU. | |
| Other countries: VAT free for clients outside of the EU | |
| VAT number | Non-domestic clients must be completed with a VAT number. |
New project
Select client in the client list, thereafter click New in the project part.
If you enter project numbers manually, start with filling in a number. If you use automatic project numbering, this field is not shown and the project is assigned a number when you save it.
