Quick Add a Contact

Requirements: You need the Add Individuals Security right to quick add a Tracker Contact. Other Interaction Tracker functions are available only if you have the appropriate licenses and security rights. For more information, see Tracker Licensing and Rights.

If the Contact Resolution process does not find the Interaction Tracker contact that you want, and you are unable to find the appropriate contact using your own search criteria, you can create a new contact in the Interaction Tracker database if you have a Tracker Access License and the appropriate Tracker Policy Security rights. You can also use the Tracker menu to add a Tracker contact at any time. For more information about this feature or your right to use it, see your CIC administrator.

When you "quick add" a new Tracker contact, you need to specify only the most important Tracker contact information.

Note: You can also click the contact resolution down arrow next to the current interaction to add a Tracker contact or you can use the Tracker menu to add a Tracker contact at any time.
