Product Selection using Contacts

Just thinking aloud... is there any reason why I couldn't import my product inventory into 'contacts' and use the 'contacts' feature as 'products' and be able to select multiple products in one cell on a row? And then do counts of products within a sheet or a selection of rows?

Thanks

Cheers

Richard

Hi Richard,

Not any I can think of! I've done something similar for a client in the past.

I'd recommend naming the products with the same prefix so they are easy to find and not end up being too much in the way of the "real" contacts.

Have a fantastic week!
