Description Contact/Activity/Time/Invoicing/Consulting Relationship Manager In Catalog
No


GMS is a contact relationship management system initially written for the one-person consulting shop, although it can be used for teams as well. A multi-user version will be released in the future.

GMS contains the standard contact management features you would expect, plus the ability to create and track "Items" that can both be displayed on calendars and be invoiced later. Default Items include Block Hours, Phone Calls, Hours, Scheduled, Expenses, Notes, products for sale. Simple invoicing is included but may not replace a real accounting package (it does work for me, though.)

UPDATE Oct 19, 2009: The version here has some bugs and incomplete features. In the meantime I have done a lot more work on it, including integrating a lot of Getting Things Done (GTD) principles. On the other hand, I haven't seen a lot of activity here so I haven't bothered to update anything here. But I will if people are interested.

The application is just 1 database but can optionally be integrated with your e-mail with the addition of 2 simple views to your mail file, allowing easy access to electronic communication with all your contacts.


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Because of data privacy you cannot lookup other people's names but you have to type them in.
Enter the contributors or owners here who you want to receive notifications and questions by email.

In addition to the owners additional OpenNTF contributors have to be listed here. Contributors don't have the same access rights as owners, e.g. they cannot create releases.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
A Catalog Release is for projects that are production ready and that are end-user "install friendly".
