Contact
Every Contact
has the ability to have multiple Persons
. These act as the details of a contact. For business they can be the people that work there, for a family these are the family members, ... If your person is an individual who is not bound to an organisation, you have two options:
- create the individual as a 'Contact'
- create a 'Contact' that is a box to collect those persons, eg Individuals.
Create a contact
Let's create your first contact: hit the red Add button
on the right corner below and choose the Card icon. A dialogbox 'quick create contact' pops up. The minimum information required is:
Displayname
A displayname can be
- an organisation, eg Rode Kruis
- a shortcut for a long company name, eg Howest for Hogeschool West-Vlaanderen.
- a name of an individual, eg Paul Boone.
