Master Client

Master Client – What has changed?

[Master Client in Pronto]

You can now restrict a Master Client to a specific Network. This helps distinguish between global clients (like a global Havas Master Client) and regional clients only relevant to a specific market (e.g. Brazil).

Inactive Master Clients

You can no longer delete a Master Client. Instead, you can mark it as Inactive. Doing so will automatically inactivate all related Brands and Products.

Unique Naming Rules

Master Client names must be unique — unless they’re restricted to different Networks. For example, you can have a global Master Client called Pronto, and also a separate Pronto limited to a regional Network like Istanbul.

Approval Groups (Advanced Tab)

You’ll also see an Advanced tab to assign Approval Groups. This supports a new feature planned for release in Q2 2023.

You will also see a ‘History’ tab that tracks any changes made on Master Client.
