Creative Manager Pro Version 8.35 Shipping

Creative Manager has released version 8.35 of its flagship product, Creative Manager Pro. Among the variety of updates now available to all Creative Manager Pro users are added security settings on custom report data sets. Users can create a report and give a group access to run it, but they may not be able to edit the report. Should users want to allow others to create their own reports for contact management, but only be able to run existing reports for time details, this new security feature now provides that flexibility.

Media enhancements are also included in this new version. Improvements to the Transaction Preference function provide users the option to sync vendor invoices from Strata and SmartPlus as "approved" or "not approved". Additionally, new upgrades offer logic to determine the outstanding open amount on a vendor invoice being applied to pre-billed orders when importing form Strata or SmartPlus. No installation or conversion will be necessary, and all updates are at no cost to users of Creative Project Manager and Creative Manager Pro. All client logins and vendor logins are always free.

Creative Manager Pro is the only ad agency software and project management software for the creative design industry, created exclusively for design firms, ad agencies, in-house creative/MarCom departments and creative service firms. It is a web-based integrated project management software and job tracking solution which streamlines the entire firm, from developing new business, to staffing, managing and executing projects through to accounting and financial reporting.
