Use this section to translate your American Contractor tasks to your new ProContractor software. Though the layout of the programs may seem different, American Contractor and ProContractor have similar navigation methods. Where American Contractor was organized into centers to group each cluster of functions (such as the Vendor Center, Construction Center, and Workforce Center), ProContractor functions are grouped into modules (such as Vendors, Projects, Employees), which are organized in the All Tasks pane on the left side of the ProContractor screen.

Note: The All Tasks pane might be hidden to make your work area on the ProContractor screen larger. When the All Tasks pane is hidden, just mouse over on the left side of the screen to display it. You can also click or press [F9] to pin the All Tasks menu so that it displays at all times.
