The MasterLink Message Center ( MMC ) allows a shop to electronically communicate with the users. Each employee should have an individual account. You can add them under Tools - Lists - Messenger on the main menu. Employees can quickly press the MMC button on the toolbar to see if there are new messages for them, or to write messages to other employees. This is particularly helpful when a client leaves a phone message or drops by when an individual is off site.
