Download List of Contacts

Clicking on the link is only available from the List tab, that is, you must first supply search criteria and click on the List tab before attempting to download the list of displayed organization contacts.  The fields included in the resulting CSV formatted file will depend on which Column Options you have chosen to display (i.e., checking the Last Updated By column option will result in an additional field displayed in the resulting List tab as well as an additional field included in the resulting downloaded CSV file). This is also applicable for the User Defined Fields.

Field Notes


Add/Edit Organization Contacts

Clicking on the add contact () or edit pencil () you can add additional or edit existing contacts.  

 

Roles

The Add/Edit Contact screen is available to users having any of the following roles:  Administrator,  P&R Administrator, AP Admin, AR Admin, GL Admin and Contact Manager.   
Note the Contact Manager may be limited by organization access.

 

When specifying that a contact is a Default Contact For the purposes of Bill To, Ship To or Remit To, note that you can only have one contact for an organization designated as the default for each of these three options.  When designating a contact as a Default Contact For, any other contact currently designated as such will have that attribute removed as part of saving this record (to ensure that only one can have the designation).  

Note that the Bill To and Ship To contacts associated with a project invoice setup are those contacts associated with the project's 'project organization', while the Remit To contacts are those contacts associated with the project's 'owning organization'.
