1. The first screen will take you through your basic company information. Your Company details will display on Quote, Sales Order, Purchase Order and Invoice PDF documents. Your logo will also appear on these and so it is important that you set your logo to an appropriate size. For more information please refer to this FAQ.

2. The second screen will give you the opportunity to set your timezone and default currency:

3. From the third you can set which modules appear simply by unticking those you don't need.

5. Click Finish Setup and you're ready to start using your OpenCRM system.
