• See the following sections for more information on how the last & next call dates work

Next call

• After entering a journal note, a prompt will be displayed to update the Last/next call dates (see previous section); this results in the applicant appearing in the Organiser screen on the next call date as a reminder to call the applicant again (in the Applicants to call section, see following section on the Organiser)

• The next call date can also be entered manually - think of this as your 1-31 follow-up system

Archive in x weeks

• This field is normally set to 12 weeks when the applicant is first registered and reduces each week that they are on the system

• Once they reach 0 weeks, the applicant will appear on the Organiser in the Applicants to remove section and will remain there until they are archived (by you) or given another period of time on the system - this is done by highlighting the existing number and over-typing with the updated number of weeks (also determined by you)

• The same process applies when the revised number of weeks reaches 0

• Checking and updating this section each time a journal entry is added will avoid applicants falling into the Applicants to Remove section

All applicants who have been identified as a potential vendor should always have a valid/future Next call date set

This ensures they are kept in the list of Applicants to Call on the Organiser

See following section

• Use the Organiser to check for Applicants to Call and Applicants to Remove
