Discover companies effortlessly with e-manage|ONE’s powerful search feature. Streamline your prospecting efforts by seamlessly importing important company information from Google with a single click, saving time and ensuring data accuracy.
Prospecting is used to find specific companies by name that you want to ship to, install to, bill to, or buy from. You can also use this tool to pull lists of companies by their category to use as a prospecting call sheet. Either way you use it, it is designed to make the entering of new company locations into the e-manage database easier and more accurate by using data from Google entered by the company themselves to fill out your information.

After you select New Company, continue to fill in the required fields before you can save. The minimum that will need to be filled out is the "Company Type" drop down. Based on the company type, your company may require other information (required fields are denoted by an asterisk and dynamically change when a company type is chosen or changed).
Note:Your administrator can adjust which fields are required in the Company Type Drop Down List Setup in the Administrator Application. We reccomend making the following fields required at minimum: Default Terms of Sale, Market Type and Status.
After selecting Save, all Salespeople will be added but you should make it a Best Practice to mark who the Primary Salesperson is and adjusting the Sales Credit. We also recommend to think about who the Bill To or Remit To (for a Vendor) will be for this new company record.

Each different address you might have to use or show on paperwork must be setup as it’s own separate Company record.
