Greetings!

It's February already and, if you can't tell, Evans has been hit by Cupid. To get in the Valentine's spirit, we are running a training promotion where you can get a $50 Visa giftcard just for registering for any of our training classes! We thought you might like a little help getting that gift for your significant other, taking them out to dinner, or simply treating yourself on this "mushy" day. :)

As always, be sure to mark your calendars for our upcoming events, including the Oracle|Primavera User Group (OPUG) meetings, webinars and training courses. Speaking of which, the OPUG meetings have been going great, but we want to hear more from you! Therefore, we have included a couple of survey's in this newsletter to gather some of your feedback. Please take just a moment to help us better serve you.

Finally, if you work for the DOT or in road construction, be sure to check out our Winter Wonder-Deal, which is only running until the end of March. Click Me

Thank you for your time and happy early Valentine's Day!

Sincerely,

Dannielle Dodd | Director of Marketing

TECHIE SPOTLIGHT - Dannielle Dodd
Dannielle & Billy
Dannielle & her fiance, Billy

As you know, my name is Dannielle and I am the Director of Marketing for Evans Technology. I have been at Evans for 1 year February 8th and love being here. I am responsible for every aspect of our business that has to do with marketing, and then some. This includes all communications through this monthly e-newsletter, promotional e-blasts, promotional event coordination & execution, promotional design, branding, advertising, and I am our webmaster (I keep our website up-to-date). I have also stepped in as the main representative for the Oracle|Primavera Users Group (OPUG), therefore communicating between all members and organizing the quarterly meetings.

Before coming to Evans, I was the promotions coordinator for MyMenu in Madison, Wisconsin. I began looking for a job position that would bring me back to Georgia (my hometown) after getting engaged Christmas day of 2009. My fiance, Billy, and I are getting married May 21st of this year and I am very excited! Outside of work, I love to perform. I sing, act, do some modeling and attend dance classes at Dance 411 in Atlanta.

I love meeting and getting to know new people, so if I haven't personally met you yet, please be sure to introduce yourself! Also, feel free to contact me any time if you have questions or need assistance with something. If I can't help, I'll find someone who can!
TIPS & TRICKSTry Me

Q: Is it a good idea to create a Global Activity Code and Project Activity Code with the same name?

A: Users should never create a Global Activity Code and Project Activity Code with the exact same name.  If there are two codes that need to be named similarly, use at least one different character to differentiate the two codes.  If Global and Project level Activity Codes are named the same, this will cause problems later on for reporting.
