Introduction

This manual is intended for administrators of Aurea CRM products.

It describes administrative tasks, tools and functions relevant for all Aurea CRM products.

The "core" of Aurea CRM consists in a set of DLLs that are used by all Aurea CRM products. Core features and functionalities cover administrative settings and configurations applicable for all products, e.g. access rights definition, triggers, texts in the data model as well as modifications and extensions to the data model. In addition, business logic functionality (e.g. price calculations in offer management) is also provided by the core and therefore the same for all products using the core components.
