The Clients grid screen lists clients in grid format. This grid format makes it very easy to filter, group and sort for ease of selection, as well as access the client entry information.
Performance hint: If a company has for example 10000 clients in their AyaNova database, and the user removes the service bank totals columns for incidents, hours and currency from displaying in the Client grid, the performance returning the list of clients will be improved. This is irrelevant if you have a small number of clients.
Performance hint: If a company has for example 10000 clients in their AyaNova database, and you do use Banked Service - just make sure none of these banked service related columns are the first four columns in the grid for sorting, and the performance returning the list of clients will be improved. This is irrelevant if you have a small number of clients.
