Most Professional Services and Project-centered Firms will find Clients and Projects to be the best structure to organize their Client information.

Most information in Feng Office will be classified as a Client or a Project.

Here are some facts about how the Clients and Projects dimension works:

• You can create as many Clients and Projects as you need. Projects can be either 'general' (not within a client) or belong to a client.
• You can create folders to organize groups of clients, groups of projects, or groups of information inside a project.
• Clients can contain projects and folders, but not other clients. In other words, you can build hierarchies of up to 10 levels. (But be careful: Many levels or a complex structure bear the potential of putting information into the wrong place, which makes it invisible for the intended audience or even accessible for unauthorized users.)
• Clients are different from folders in that respect that you can not only see what's inside a Client but also what's inside all sub-elements of that Client. That's the reason why Clients and Projects are much more like filters than like folders.
• Clients and Projects are used to control permissions in Feng Office. You can grant a user the right to work with a certain Project and hide another Project completely from them. There are even more detailed permission parameters (which are discussed in more detail on the permissions page).
