Creates Companies and Links Contacts for your entire database -- all at once!

Do you use Company Records? If so, you should know about Company Wizard Plus. Most of us end up with some 'widowed' contacts -- contacts needing to be linked to existing companies or companies created and contacts linked. Act! only allows you to do this one at a time. But with just a quick pass of Company Wizard Plus, you can create Companies and link Contacts -- en masse! A huge time-saver!

Company Wizard Plus updates your entire database; elevating and creating Company Records and linking Contacts. It even UNLINKs Contacts from Companies. Great for cleaning up imported lists! See exactly what was done in a report at the end of the process.

Company Wizard Plus is easy to use! Simply locate Company Wizard Plus on the Tools menu when in a Contact List view in Act!, select the contacts you wish to work with, and you'll have the following options:

Link contacts to existing Company Records
Choose up to 3 fields to match on, none of which have to be Company Name
Create a Company if one does not exist and then Link Contacts.
Bypass Contacts with blank Company or Contact Records.
Copy all Act! Default Fields that are created when using Contact/Create Company from Contact
Copy additional fields: Phone, Extension, Fax Phone, Fax Extension, and ID/Status
Mass unlink selected Contacts from the Contact List
Delete Selected Companies -- multiple companies deleted in one operation (This function is built into Act! v16 and Newer. CWP allows mass company delete this for earlier versions)

Full report shows what was done: Once Company Wizard Plus has run, a menu box appears showing how many Company Records were created and how many Contacts were linked or skipped.
