Before creating projects or generating invoices, register your clients in the My Clients module to store their contact details, invoicing terms, and default currency.

5Select Country: Select the client's registered jurisdiction.
6Enter Contact Details: Provide primary contact person, operational email, and billing/finance email.
7Configure Billing Rate: Set the client's default unit (Word, Page, Hour, Minute, or Project) and currency (USD, EUR, GBP, JOD, SAR, AED).

Separate Operations and Billing Emails

CATTAB allows you to define distinct primary and finance email addresses. When you generate an invoice, the system routes statements directly to the accounting contact without spamming project managers.

Pro Tip

Client default rates automatically populate into new projects, but you can override them on individual deliverables when needed.
