What if I want to make changes to a contact?

  • You can edit, copy, unassign, or delete the contact from the Actions button in the upper-right hand corner of the contact. 
    • Unassign will unassign the contact from that particular organization, but not remove them entirely from our list of contacts.

What about editing a contact?

  • Using the Status drop-down menu, a contact can be made Active or Inactive, so you can make a contact inactive that no longer works at an organization without deleting them from our contacts list. 
  • You can select as many categories as are relevant for that contact from the Categories drop-down menu. 
    • Categories include Primary, Payments, Support, etc. 
    • Emails and phone numbers can also be given categories. 
      • I believe if you give an email You MUST click the blue Primary button next to the email address or phone number the status of Primary, it will then display under Email / Phone , if you want them to display on the organization's list of contact people on the main record. 
  • URLs and addresses can be added on this screen if you scroll down.

How do I add a new contact to an organization?

That must be done from within the organization.

  • After searching for and selecting the organization, choose edit from the Actions drop-down menu. 
  • At the bottom of the list of Contact people, click Add contact.

Holy crap, I'm in the contacts app! Now what?

Wouldn't it be nice if we could access the contacts app without having to go through an organization? Just sayin'...

  • If you know your contact already exists within FOLIO, you can search for their name in the left-hand search bar. 
  • You can filter by active, inactive, or categories.
  • If you're adding an entirely new contact, click the New button in the upper-right hand corner. 
    • When you click Save & close, the contact will automatically attach to the organization (thank you, Fame Flower upgrade!).
