Customer management

Contacts

A working record for each person, with ownership, tags, follow-ups and linked activity.

How it works

Keep the person and the follow-up together

Give each contact a working record for ownership, tags, follow-up and the activity around the relationship. Search, filter and save the views your team returns to, then open related work without losing context.

01

What it covers

Search and filter large lists, save useful views, update records in bulk, and open related deals, tasks, tickets and documents.

02

In practice

Bulk update selected records and review linked deals, tasks, tickets and documents from the contact.

When to use it

Useful situations

  • Find a person by name or other saved details before replying to an enquiry.
  • Build a reusable view for contacts needing follow-up or a particular owner.
  • Review related customer work before a handover or renewal conversation.

A working path

How the work moves

  1. Narrow the list

    Search and combine the available status, company, source, tag, follow-up and completeness filters. Save a view when the same working criteria will be useful again.

  2. Check the person’s record

    Open a contact to review ownership, tags, follow-up details and linked activity. Related deals, tasks, tickets, projects and documents appear only when your permissions allow them.

  3. Make a controlled update

    Edit an individual record or select eligible contacts for a bulk update. Confirm the affected selection before applying a change, then return to the saved view to continue the queue.

Illustrative scenario

Preparing a customer call

Filter for contacts at one company, open the right person, check recent activity and linked opportunities, then record the agreed follow-up so another teammate can see it.

Before you start

What to check

  • Contact details and related records are tenant-scoped and permission-filtered; the page does not grant access to a hidden module.
  • Bulk changes affect selected records, so review the selection and chosen field before applying the update.

Questions about Contacts

Useful details before you start.

All questions
Can contacts be connected to other work?

Yes. Contact records can show related sales, service, project and document records when those areas are available to you.

Can I recover an archived contact?

Supported archived records can be reviewed through the permission-aware recycle workflow.
