Sign Up for Product-Specific Support E-Mail Announcements

To communicate product issues, workarounds, and patches to you on
a proactive basis, we have established a process that lets you
sign up for e-mail announcements on specific products. To sign up

NEW to Primavera Support Resources - Username and Attachments
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In an effort to simplify the way you access Primavera's web-based
customer portal and Knowledgebase (POINT), your registered email
address is your new username. Please note that your password has
NOT been changed.  The next time you access POINT, please use your
registered email address as your POINT username.

Along with this change, you are now able to include an attachment
when submitting a Support Request via POINT.

We implemented these changes in October 2004 based on your
feedback. Thank you for the suggestions, and we hope you enjoy the
enhancements.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Using Primavera Support Resources: Knowledgebase, Live Support,
and POINT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Primavera provides a variety of support resources and services to
our maintenance customers. We encourage you to choose the medium
most convenient to you when you need help.

Primavera provides a web-based customer portal (POINT) where you
can create and review Support requests, and maintain your customer
profile, mailing address, and product registrations. POINT is also
the gateway for customers with current maintenance contracts to
access our online support Knowledgebase as well as Live Support
Services (such as web chat and request callback). If you initiate
a support request via POINT, you will be notified via email
whenever there is new activity surrounding the support incident,
such as additional research or a new solution.

You may access POINT at:
http://customerportal.primavera.com/customer

The first time you visit the site, please use the password lookup
feature by entering your e-mail address. If your e-mail address
is not recognized for any reason, please contact the closest
Primavera support office to have your record created or corrected.

To access the online support Knowledgebase from POINT, click on
the "KnowledgeBase" link on the left pane and you will be asked
to enter a valid serial number. Once you are redirected to the
knowledgebase, you will see a list of "Product Alerts," "Hot
Issues," and Newsletters. You can also click on the "Search
KnowledgeBase" hyperlink to initiate a search.

To call or email a Primavera support center, please browse to
http://www.primavera.com/support/contacts.html for contact
information and hours of operation.
