# Customer relations management (CRM) **(FREE)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/2256) in GitLab 14.6 [with a flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `customer_relations`. Disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
FLAG:
|
|
On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is not available. To make it available,
|
|
ask an administrator to [enable the feature flag](../../administration/feature_flags.md) named `customer_relations`.
|
|
On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
|
|
You should not use this feature for production environments.
|
|
|
|
With customer relations management (CRM) you can create a record of contacts
|
|
(individuals) and organizations (companies) and relate them to issues.
|
|
|
|
You can use contacts and organizations to tie work to customers for billing and reporting purposes.
|
|
To read more about what is planned for the future, see [issue 2256](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/2256).
