CRM - Contact View

Contacts View

From the Contacts List page clicking on any of the main contact field values will drill down into the Contacts View page, which displays each of the contact values along with a summary of their activity. The contact's avatar will automatically be imported if there's a Gravatar account that shares the same email.

A contact record

The Details panel displays each of the contact's field values, which defaults to only show the essential information, but clicking More will expand the section and show all of their standard and custom fields. If you would like to update any of the values just click into the field, overtype with what you would like, then click off the field for it to be saved automatically.

To associate or unassiociate the contact with further groups just click the pencil symbol to open the Assign Groups modal. Any existing groups can be removed by clicking the cross next to the group name and to add additional groups just click within the box to open the dropdown selection. From here groups can be selected by scrolling and clicking, or the list can be filtered by typing the name of the group you are looking for.

The Account section displays a quick summary of which account the contact is associated with. Clicking the pencil symbol opens a modal that allows you to manually amend their account choice from this page if required by either selecting an account, or selecting the blank option to remove the selected account, before clicking Save. To locate an account you can either scroll through the dropdown list, or free type to filter the list.

The activity section shows a summary of the activity the contact has engaged in with the date and time displayed. If you would like to search for any activity in particular the search box can be used to filter the list. You can also only view a specific type of activity by changing the option in the top right corner. The date the contact subscribed is also listed here at the top, along with the contact's source, which can be amended by clicking on the pencil symbol and selecting an alternative from the modal.
