How to Create a Project

Projects in clientfam represent work you do for clients. Each project can have milestones, tasks, expenses, updates, and linked invoices, giving you a complete view of the engagement.

Step 1: Navigate to Projects

Click "Projects" in the sidebar under Delivery, then click "New Project".

Step 2: Fill in Project Details

  • Project Name (required): A descriptive name for the project.
  • Client (required): Select the client this project belongs to.
  • Status: The initial status (e.g. Not Started, In Progress, On Hold, Completed).
  • Start Date: When the project begins.
  • End Date: Expected completion date.
  • Budget: The total project budget.
  • Description: Details about the project scope and objectives.

Step 3: Save the Project

Click "Create Project". You'll be taken to the project detail page where you can start adding milestones, tasks, and more.

Creating from a Template

If you have project templates set up, you can create a project from a template that fills in milestones, tasks, expenses, and checklists for you.

Tip:

Projects can also be created automatically when converting a lead. See How to Convert a Lead to a Project.
