Getting Started with Outlook Business Contact Manager 2010

Strangely, however, Business Contact Manager 2010 is only available with Office 2010 Standard and Professional Plus.

To get started, simply execute the installer and setup as normal.

Note that youll need to have all Office applications closed during the setup.

If any Office apps are open, youll be prompted to exit them before continuing with setup.

kill the programs, and then re-launch the setup to install Business Contact Manager.

Once the installation is finished, run Outlook to finish the setup.

Now, select whether youd like to start out with sample data or with a fresh new account.

Once its finished, youll be asked to enter info about your company.

When youre finished, click Next to finish setup.

Youll notice a variety of new tools in Outlook when youre in the Business Contact Manager pane.

you might add new accounts, contacts, vendors, and more.

you might then add detailed sales opportunity info, and follow up when you make a sell or purchase.

Youll also see a new Business Contact Manager pane in the Outlook File menu.

Here you’re free to backup your business data and change your BCM configs.

you’re free to also import existing business data from ACT!

or QuickBooks directly into BCM from the Options pane.

Business Contact Manager is also automatically integrated into many of the other Office apps.

This makes it easy to keep up with your projects and records, no matter what youre working with.

We wish it was more widely available, and hope Microsoft does release it for other editions of Office.
