This article will walk you through how you can set up and manage crucial aspects of your business information, branding, and trading terms within Pooltrackr.
The My Business section serves as your central hub for configuring vital details that define your business identity and operations. From inputting contact information and company details to customising branding elements such as logos and colour schemes, this section allows you to establish a consistent brand presence across all customer interactions.
General
This page is where you can manage your organisation's details, contact information, and logo.

2. Contact and address details
This is where the manager or operator of your business’s contact information would go, the behind-the-scenes contact person for all correspondence. Fill out the contact information. You can use the address search function to fill your address out automatically, or you can write it in manually.

Click on the Change logo option to upload your file.
Brand
The brand settings page is where you can further customise your branding. Here, you can change the brand colour where it will be reflected in the heading text, accent and button colours across your invoices, job sheets and quotes.
Selecting a brand colour
Toggle the brand colour switch and to update the brand colour, you can either:
- Use the sliders and drag the dot to select the colour
- Enter a Hex code
- Enter RGBA values
- Choose one of the default colours
The colour you select here will be used in the heading text, accent colour, and button colours on your invoices, job sheets, and quotes. Disabling this option will revert the colour to the default one.
Email Sign-off
The email sign-off is the message displayed on invoice emails and PDFs. You can use the merge tags to personalise the message you send to your customers. This message can also be changed for each invoice recipient at the point of sending the invoice.
You can use the text toolbar to elevate your email signature. The information from the app can be used to personalise customer communications. You can use the org merge tags to customise your message further.
{org_name} {org_address} {org_email} {org_phone} {org_website}
Trading Terms
You have the flexibility to include as many trading terms as necessary for your account. These terms can be applied when creating or editing a customer. By default, new customers will be set to the Default trading term.
1. Click on the New Term button to create a new trading term for your organisation. Start by adding the Name and Period. In the Period field, you would need to enter a number and select between weeks, days, and months to further define it.
