This article was written to provide instructions on managing contacts, specifically how to add, edit, and delete contacts within the CRM. This article is broken down into the following topics:

Adding a contact

NOTE
Depending on your permissions, some options may not be available.
  1. From the Contacts tab, click Add a Contact.

    The Add Contact page displays (see below).
  2. You will then be taken to a blank intake form.

  3. First, take a look at the Public checkbox, then the Company and Assigned To options above the form table at the top right of the page.

    • Public - marking the contact as "Public" gives everyone access regardless of their user role permission or other limitations on viewing data.
    • Company - The company assignment designates the company to which the contact will be assigned. If left as "--Select--," the system will automatically assign the contact to the same company the user creating the contact is assigned to.
    • Assigned To - User the contact is assigned to, if left alone the system will automatically assign the contact to the user creating it.

  4. Fill in the fields listed on the page. If there is a co-applicant, a duplicate set of fields will appear to be filled out for the co-applicant.

    Note: If you see **, that designates a field required to save. The user must fill that information in before saving the contact.

  5. Along the left-hand side of the page, you will find the different form groups; click any of the listed form groups (such as Address Information, Employer Information, Additional Information, Reference 1, or Reference 2) to access more sections of the form.
