您需要跟上客户，项目，销售等等吗？ 我们来看一下Outlook Contact Manager 2010，这是一个出色的简单工具，可帮助您保持业务井井有条。

获取Outlook Business Contact Manager 2010 (Getting Outlook Business Contact Manager 2010)

Outlook Business Contact Manager 2007 was available as a stand-alone purchase, and was also included with Office 2007 Small Business, Professional, and Ultimate.  Strangely, however, Business Contact Manager 2010 is only available with Office 2010 Standard and Professional Plus.  This means you can only get Business Contact Manager through a volume license or a Technet subscription.  Or, if you used the Tech Guarantee to get a free Office 2010 upgrade, your upgrade may include the Business Contact Manager if your copy of Office 2007 included it.  Microsoft has stated that they may offer other solutions in the future, but for now, Business Contact Manager is mainly only available to Volume Licensed copies of Office.

Outlook Business Contact Manager 2007可单独购买，也包含在Office 2007 Small Business，Professional和Ultimate中。 但是，奇怪的是，Business Contact Manager 2010仅与Office 2010 Standard和Professional Plus一起提供。 这意味着您只能通过批量许可证或Technet订阅获得Business Contact Manager。 或者，如果您使用技术担保获得了免费的Office 2010升级，则如果您的Office 2007副本中包含商务联系人管理器，则该升级可能包括Business Contact Manager。 Microsoft已声明他们将来可能会提供其他解决方案，但目前，Business Contact Manager仅主要适用于Office的批量许可副本。

安装和使用Business Contact Manager (Installing and Using Business Contact Manager)

If you do have access to Business Contact Manager, it’s a great tool for keeping track of your business contacts, deals, sales, and more.  To get started, simply run the installer and setup as normal.  The installer works the same as the main Office 2010 installer, but you won’t have to enter your product key again as Business Contact Manager recognizes your Office 2010 installation.

如果您确实有权使用Business Contact Manager，则它是跟踪您的业务联系人，交易，销售等的绝佳工具。 首先，只需正常运行安装程序并进行设置即可。 该安装程序的工作方式与Office 2010主安装程序相同，但是您不必再次输入产品密钥，因为Business Contact Manager可以识别您的Office 2010安装程序。

Note that you’ll need to have all Office applications closed during the setup.  If any Office apps are open, you’ll be prompted to exit them before continuing with setup.  Close the programs, and then re-launch the setup to install Business Contact Manager.

请注意，您需要在安装过程中关闭所有Office应用程序。 如果打开了任何Office应用程序，系统将提示您退出它们，然后继续进行安装。 关闭程序，然后重新启动安装程序以安装Business Contact Manager。

Once the installation is finished, run Outlook to finish the setup.  You’ll be greeted with a Business Contact Manager setup screen, where you can choose setup quickly with default settings or start a custom setup where you can tweak your account.

Now, select whether you’d like to start out with sample data or with a fresh new account.  If you’re just getting started with BCM, it may be helpful to start out with the sample data to see how it works.  You can always switch to a new account whenever you’re ready to start using your real company data.

现在，选择是要从样本数据还是全新的帐户开始。 如果您刚刚开始使用BCM，那么从示例数据开始以了解其工作原理可能会有所帮助。 每当您准备开始使用真实的公司数​​据时，您始终可以切换到新帐户。
