Open **Clients**, locate the relevant client, and review or maintain the information available on that record according to your organization’s process. **Practice task:** Open **Clients** and review one client record that you may need for upcoming market work. ### Lesson 1.2: Work with principals and accounts When market work involves a principal organization or an account, use the appropriate record type so that information is kept in the correct place. Open [Principals](doc:principals-guide) to work with principal records, and use [accounts](doc:accounts-market) when your task concerns an account record. Confirm which record type matches the business situation before maintaining information. **Practice task:** Open [Principals](doc:principals-guide) and [accounts](doc:accounts-market), then identify which screen you would use for one principal-related task and one account-related task. ## Module 2: Support active market work Use projects and registrations to record and follow operational work as it happens. ### Lesson 2.1: Manage market projects When a market initiative needs to be tracked as a project, use [Projects](doc:projects-guide). Locate the relevant project record, review the information available for the initiative, and maintain the project record as needed for your organization’s workflow. **Practice task:** Open [Projects](doc:projects-guide) and review a project that is relevant to your current market activity. ### Lesson 2.2: Record and follow up on registrations When a registration requires attention, use **Registrations** to locate and manage its record. Review the registration information available in the screen and update or follow up on it in line with your organization’s registration process. **Practice task:** Open **Registrations** and identify one registration that requires review or follow-up. ## Module 3: Review and prioritize the market portfolio Bring together project and registration work to support ongoing oversight and timely action. ### Lesson 3.1: Review active project work When preparing for a market review, begin with [Projects](doc:projects-guide) to assess the project records that need attention. Review the available project information, identify records that require action, and use the project record as the basis for your follow-up. **Practice task:** Use [Projects](doc:projects-guide) to select one project for follow-up and note the action you need to take outside the app. ### Lesson 3.2: Perform a registration follow-up review When performing periodic operational follow-up, use **Registrations** to review registration records alongside your active work. Focus on the registrations that require a response, confirmation, or other next step under your organization’s process. **Practice task:** Review **Registrations** and create a short priority list of two registrations to address. ## Final assessment 1. A customer organization contacts you and you need to review the organization’s market information. Which screen should you use first? 2. You are asked to update information about an organization that acts as a principal. Which screen is appropriate? 3. A market initiative is being tracked and you need to review its record before taking follow-up action. Where should you go? 4. You are preparing a periodic review of items requiring registration-related follow-up. Which screen should you use? 5. You need to decide whether a task belongs on a principal record or an account record. What should you do before making changes? ### Answers 1. ****Clients**.** This is the Market screen for working with client records. 2. **[Principals](doc:principals-guide).** Principal-related information belongs in the principal record area. 3. **[Projects](doc:projects-guide).** Projects is the appropriate screen for reviewing and maintaining market project records. 4. ****Registrations**.** Registrations is used to review and manage registration records requiring follow-up. 5. **Identify whether the business situation concerns a principal or an account, then use [Principals](doc:principals-guide) or [accounts](doc:accounts-market) accordingly.** Selecting the correct record type keeps market information organized in the proper location.
