Description |
Personal |
Use Search existing contacts to search for an existing contact record. Information from the selected record defaults into the fields. Use Add a new contact to enter the contact’s name. The program performs duplicate checking to prevent adding the same contact twice. |
Relationship |
In the Vendor is the field, enter or select the vendor’s affiliation to the contact. For example, you may designate AB&C Group as the “Employer.”. In the Contact is the field, enter or select the contact’s affiliation to the vendor. For example, you may select Tim Jones is the “Employee.” Select a contact type and position. When you access the Add/Edit contact screen from a vendor or contact record, the Add Primary Contact checkbox appears. If the vendor has no other contacts assigned, the checkbox is marked by default. If the vendor already has a primary contact, you can select this checkbox to make the current contact the primary instead. |
Address |
Enter address, phone, and email information for the contact. |
Copy vendor contact information |
If the contact’s address information is the same as the vendor, you can select Copy vendor contact information to quickly add the vendor’s information to the contact. |
