Accounts Dashboard
The Account Dashboard can be displayed by highlighting an account and selecting the Dashboard button from the Customer Management>Accounts Search screen (see Account Search for details). The Account Dashboard is a comprehensive overview of account details, including bookings for the account and associated events; an account productivity statistics display; sales goals for the account; and general information related to the account. For convenience, the dashboard includes an interactive calendar and a list of activities linked to the account. From this screen, the user can create and edit bookings, add and modify activities, and access account and contact details by selecting the appropriate button or double-clicking on the title bar of the window.
Address and communication details as well as some of the account qualifications are shown in this section. To view other details or modify any of the account information, select the Edit button.
Hierarchy. Select this button to display the account's hierarchical position in a "tree view" style diagram with its relationships to other accounts.
Contact. This button displays the complete information, for the contact that is highlighted in the contact grid, for viewing or editing.
New. Select this option to create a new contact for the account.
The Blocks list is separated into two different sections. The Last Block section displays the last block for the account where the departure date is prior to today. The second, or Current and Future Blocks section, displays all of the business block bookings for the account that are currently in-house or have an arrival date in the future.
When the application function Leads>Lead Functionality is set to Y an additional option (Include Leads) displays in the Blocks section of the Account Dashboard which allows you to include/exclude Leads from this grid. The default setting is unchecked which will not include Leads.

The Activities feature helps keep track of upcoming appointments, sales calls, follow-up contacts, things to do, and so on. In addition, Activities remain in the Opera database until they are manually deleted. Because of this, they can serve as an historical record of your communications and business interactions and the list is separated into two different sections. The first, or Last Activity, section displays the last activity for the account closest to the current date (based on the End Date) regardless of its completion status. Activities with no End Date will not be displayed in this list. Correspondence and Calls will not display in the last activity section.
The second, or Current And Future Activities section, displays all of the activities for this account that are currently scheduled to be happening for the current business date or for a date in the future; again based on the End Date. If no End Date is present the Activity is then listed by the Start Date if the Start Date for the Activity is equal to the current business date. All Activity Types will display in this section.
Date. Date the activity was created or modified for the account.
Type. Type of activity that was created.
T. Identifies the activity as a To-Do, for example an activity without a time component, with an X.
Own. Displays the initials of the owner who is accountable for the activity.
Purpose. Displays the purpose of the activity for the account. Select the purpose to display the Activity screen and view the complete activity or edit the activity information.
C. Signifies if the activity has been completed or not. If the activity has been completed, an X will appear in the column.

New Activity. Select to setup a new activity for the account (see Create Activities for details).
