Client Matters for Admins

Learn how admins can manage client matter numbers in Harvey, including viewing, editing, uploading in bulk, and setting user permissions.

Last updated: Jun 5, 2025

Overview

Client matters numbers are used to organize and track work related to specific clients and matters. They help in billing, managing case files, and ensuring that all activities and expenses are accurately recorded for each client and case.

While using Harvey, you may need to view, edit, or upload your client matters numbers in bulk. This can be done from the Client Matters section in Settings.

To understand the typical user experience, please read Client Matters Numbers.

Viewing and Editing Client Matters Numbers

As an admin, you can see all client matters numbers in your workspace, along with the number of queries and users for each one. You can edit the name and description, as well as delete any client matters number.
