Contact Types
When creating contacts in the Address Book, you can select from two types of contacts:
- Company
- Individual
Data Fields
The data input fields when adding/editing a contact will adapt to whether the contact is a company or individual.
For company contacts, you can uniquely enter these data fields:
- Company name (instead of two separate first and last name fields)
- Acronym (e.g., you could specify "DOW" if the contact name is "Department of Widgets")
- ACN
For individual contacts, you can uniquely enter these data fields:
- Separate fields for first and last name
- Link to a company (refer here for more info on linking individuals to companies)
- Mobile
Cannot be Changed
You can only set the type of contact when first adding them. The contact type cannot be changed on existing contacts.
