== Introduction ==  
 
== Introduction ==  
Les relations sont le réseau de contacts intégré de ProDon. À partir de cette fonctionnalité, il est possible de lier les contacts à leur organisation, à leur famille, à leurs amis et à leurs connaissances. De plus, ProDon garde une trace, car il est important de pouvoir retracer le réseau de contacts d'un client ainsi que les organisations avec lesquelles il a été en contact. Les relations sont aussi très importantes, car elles sont liées au publipostage. Dans cette partie, il est d'ailleurs possible de spécifier une multitude de types de publipostage client.
+
The relations are the contact network within ProDon. From this function, it is possible to link contacts to their organization, their family, their friends and their acquaintances. Furthermore, ProDon keeps a memory because it is important to be able to redraw the contact network of clients and organizations. The relations are also important because they are linked to the mass mailing and E-mail blast.  
  
== Concept des relations ==
 
  
Une relation est le lien entre deux entités. Ces entités peuvent être des individus ou des compagnies. Ces liens sont représentés par Client 1 (C1) est lié à Client 2 (C2).  
+
== The Relation concept ==

D'un point de vue théorique, il faudrait représenter une relation comme suit:  
+
From a theoretical perspective, a relation should be shown as followed:

[[File:ProDon5_Relation_Relation_concept_001.png]] <br>
  
Voici des résultats avec des exemples:

Here are the results with examples:
  
1) Si C1 est un individu et que C2 est un individu:
+
1) If C1 is an individual and C2 is also an individual:<br>

[[File:ProDon5_Relation_Relation_concept_004.png]] <br>
  
Il est important de noter que même si une relation est '''''MUTUELLE''''', il faudrait toujours la lire de C1 vers C2:
+
Please note that even if a relation is '''''MUTUAL''''', it must always be read from C1 to C2: <br>
  
[[Fichier:ProDon5_Relation_Concept_d'une_relation_006.png]]
 
  
Donc, dans un cas pratique de l'onglet relation de la gestion des clients de ProDon:

[[File:ProDon5_Relation_Relation_concept_006.png]] <br>

So, with a example from the relation tab of the client management of ProDon: <br>
  
Il faudrait comprendre ceci:

== Modifier un type de relation ==
+
== Edit a relation type ==
Idéalement, il faut modifier un type de relation avant qu'il y ait des relations qui l'utilisent, car les sections utilisées seront figées. Normalement, c'est identique à l'ajout: il est possible de modifier le « Code », la description, la description inverse , les options des « Types intégrés » et la section « Permettre les relations ». Pour ce faire, il faut se positionner sur le type de relation à modifier et appuyer sur le bouton [[Fichier:Bouton_Modifier.png]].
+
Ideally, a relation type should be edited before creating a relation that will be using it because the used sections will be locked. It is mostly identical to the addition of a relation type: it is possible to edit the "Code", the "Description", the "Reverse description", the "Integrated types" options and the "Allow the relations" section. To do so, select the relation to edit and click on the [[File:Edit_button.png]] button.
 
 
  
'''''ATTENTION!'''''
+
'''''CAUTION!'''''
  
Dans l'exemple suivant, la relation a été configurée en fonction que tout pourrait être conjoint de tout.  
+
In the following example, the relation has been configured in function that everything could be spouse of everything.
  
[[Fichier:ProDon5_Relations_Modifier_un_type_de_relation_001.png]]

[[File:ProDon5_Relations_Edit_a_relation_type_001.png]]
  
Donc, il y a des cas comme cela:

So, it creates cases like these:

Alors, comme il y a déjà des cas existants qui impliquent toutes ces possibilités dans cette base de données ProDon, il est impossible de modifier cet exemple de relation avant d'ajuster toutes les relations utilisant ce type de relation. Il faut faire attention pour ne pas que vos relations soient des fourre-tout.
+
So, because there is already existing cases that imply all possibilities in this ProDon database, it is not possible to edit this relation example before adjusting all relations using this relation type first. Please be cautious to not create a catch-all relation.
  
== Retirer un type de relation ==
+
== Remove a relation type ==
Il est possible de retirer les types de relations qui ne sont plus utilisés. Si le type est encore utilisé, le logiciel bloquera le retrait.  
+
It is possible to remove the relation types that are not used anymore. If the type is still used, the software will block the removal.  
  
 +
Please select the relation type that must be removed and select the [[File:Button_Minus_remove_delete.png]] button in the Relation type management.
 +
  
Il faut sélectionner le type de relation qu'il faut retirer et appuyer sur le bouton [[Fichier:Bouton_Retirer.png]] dans la gestion des types de relation.

Relations


Caution: This document is for the version 5 and higher of Prodon.

Introduction

The relations are the contact network within ProDon. From this function, it is possible to link contacts to their organization, their family, their friends and their acquaintances. Furthermore, ProDon keeps a memory because it is important to be able to redraw the contact network of clients and organizations. The relations are also important because they are linked to the mass mailing and E-mail blast.


The Relation concept

A relation is the link between 2 entities. These entities can be individuals or companies. These links are depicted by Client 1 (C1) is linked to Client 2 (C2).

Possible type of relations

C1

C2

Individual Individual
Individual Company
Company Individual
Company Company

From a theoretical perspective, a relation should be shown as followed:

ProDon5 Relation Relation concept 001.png

Here are the results with examples:

1) If C1 is an individual and C2 is also an individual:
ProDon5 Relation Relation concept 002.png

2) If C1 is an individual and C2 is a company:
ProDon5 Relation Relation concept 005.png

3) If C1 is a company and C2 is an individual:
ProDon5 Relation Relation concept 003.png

4) If C1 is a company and C2 is also a company:
ProDon5 Relation Relation concept 004.png

Please note that even if a relation is MUTUAL, it must always be read from C1 to C2:

So, with a example from the relation tab of the client management of ProDon:

One should understand this:

Add a relation type

To add a relation type, go to the "Client" tab of the homepage and click on "Relation types".

ProDon5 Relations Add a relation type 001.png

This window will open:
ProDon5 Relations Add a relation type 002.png

Click on the Button add plus.png button to add a relation type, on the Edit button.png button to edit and on the Button Minus remove delete.png button to remove a relation type.

Then, this window will open:
ProDon5 Relations Add a relation type 003.png

A: The "Code" section is used to name a relation.

B: The "Description" section is used to explain the link from client 1 to client 2.
C: The "Reverse description" section is used to explain the link from client 2 to client 1.

The "Integrated types" section shows preset configurations for a relation.

ProDon5 Relations Add a relation type 004.png

A: When the option "Company/Contact" is checked, automatically the options of the section "Allow the relations" are checked. The context where this option must be selected is when new relation type must be limited to a company and an individual.

B: Please observe that by selecting this potion in the "Integrated types", the other options of the same section and also the section "Allow the relations" become locked.

A: When the option "Spouse(s)" is checked, automatically the options of the section "Allow the relations" and the "Immediate family" box are checked. The context where this option must be selected is when new relation type must be limited to two persons that are in couple.

B: Please observe that by selecting this potion in the "Integrated types", the other options of the same section and also the section "Allow the relations" become locked.

The "Allow the relations" section allows the customization of the configuration of the relation types.

ProDon5 Relations Add a relation type 007.png

A: When the option "Between 2 companies" is checked, the relation will be able to be set between 2 companies.

B: When the option "Between 2 individuals" is checked, the relation will be able to be set between 2 individuals.
C: When the option "Between a company and an individual" is checked, the relation will be able to be set between a company and an individual.

Edit a relation type

Ideally, a relation type should be edited before creating a relation that will be using it because the used sections will be locked. It is mostly identical to the addition of a relation type: it is possible to edit the "Code", the "Description", the "Reverse description", the "Integrated types" options and the "Allow the relations" section. To do so, select the relation to edit and click on the Edit button.png button.

CAUTION!

In the following example, the relation has been configured in function that everything could be spouse of everything.

ProDon5 Relations Edit a relation type 001.png

So, it creates cases like these:

Possible relations from this template
C1 Relation C2
Individual is spouse of Individual
Individual is spouse of Company
Company is spouse of Individual
Company is spouse of Company

So, because there is already existing cases that imply all possibilities in this ProDon database, it is not possible to edit this relation example before adjusting all relations using this relation type first. Please be cautious to not create a catch-all relation.

Remove a relation type

It is possible to remove the relation types that are not used anymore. If the type is still used, the software will block the removal.

Please select the relation type that must be removed and select the Button Minus remove delete.png button in the Relation type management.

Then, this page opens:
ProDon5 Relations Add a relation 002.png

A: This option allows the selection among all clients and all companies of the database.

B: This option allows the creation of a contact who will be visible only as C2 in ProDon. Even if a client number will be reserved for this C2, the result will not be an official client file, it will be a file accessible only from this relation.
C: This option allows the determination of the relation type between these two parties. D: The "Reverse" checkbox allows the inversion of the selected relation in the type. For example, if the relation is "is the parent of", when the "Reverse" checkbox is checked, the relation should become "is the child of".
E: This section is used to indicate when the relation between these 2 parties has started. F: This section is used to indicate when the relation between these 2 parties has ended. Usually, this section is documented later.
G: The address option allows C1 (Client 1) address to be placed as the origin of the address of C2 (Client 2).

L'option adresse permet de placer l'adresse du C1(Client 1) comme la provenance de l'adresse du C2 (Client 2).

H: This checkbox allows C2 to become the main contact of C1. A company cannot become the main contact of an individual. This information will be stored in the relation.
I: If this box is checked, C2 will become the contact for receipts of C1. This information will be stored in the relation.
