# Client portfolio

> Manage your clients in one place. View their deals, proposals, and contact details from a dedicated portfolio page.

The client portfolio gives you a centralized view of every client you work with. Each client has a profile page showing their deals, proposals, and key details — so you can find context quickly without searching across multiple screens.

## Client list

Navigate to **Clients** from the sidebar. You'll see a searchable list of all your clients with their name and the number of associated deals and proposals.

<Tip>
  Clients are created automatically when you enter a client name in a proposal or deal. You can also create them manually from the client list.
</Tip>

## Client portfolio page

Click any client to open their portfolio. The page has three sections:

### Overview

The top section shows the client's name and basic contact information. You can edit these details inline.

### Deals

All deals associated with this client. Each deal card shows the name, stage, expected value, and date. You can:

* Click a deal to go to its detail page.
* Create a new deal for this client — the client is pre-filled automatically.

### Proposals

All proposals where the client name matches. Each proposal card shows the name, status, document type, and total value. Click any proposal to open it in the editor.

## Creating a deal from a client

When you click **Create deal** from a client's portfolio page, the deal form opens with the client already associated. This saves you from having to search and select the client manually.

## Client association in deals

When you create a deal, you can select an existing client from a dropdown. The client's name then appears on:

* The deal detail page sidebar.
* All proposals created from that deal (pre-filled in the editor).
* The client's portfolio page under the Deals section.

<Note>
  A deal can only be associated with one client. If a project involves multiple stakeholders, use the primary decision-maker as the deal's client and note others in the deal timeline.
</Note>

## Client data flow

The diagram below shows how client information flows through Quikly:

1. You enter a client name when creating a deal or proposal.
2. If the client doesn't exist, Quikly creates a client record automatically.
3. When you create a proposal from a deal, the client name is pre-filled.
4. When you create an addendum or renewal, the client is inherited from the parent proposal.
5. All linked deals and proposals appear on the client's portfolio page.
