In the Contact Directory Manager, locations can be assigned their own contact information. These locations can then be assigned to contacts in the Contact Manager, providing contact information to all related contacts.

Example

If a contact works in the admissions office, and much of their contact information is shared within the office, you can add an Admissions Office location and add the contact information to it. Once the location is added to the Location Manager, you can assign it to everyone who works in the admissions office. Adding contact information by creating a location doesn't prevent you from adding contact information directly to a contact.

  1. On the right side of the toolbar, click  .

  2. In the Dashboard, click Contact Directory Manager.

    The Contact Directory Manager page opens.
