Using Contacts while Creating Records in the Web App
By having a list of your contacts that is easily accessible, this also allows you to save steps when you create certain records such as the Wool Harvest Record, Purchase and Sale Record, Transfer Record, Commodity Purchase and Sale Record, and Treatment Record and Inventory.
For example, in the Purchase Record, you will notice the Vendor and Transport sections both have options to Select Contact.
When you choose Select Contact, a list of of all the transporter type contacts will appear for you to choose from.
Select the appropriate contact, then choose Confirm contact selection.
The fields in the record will then auto-populate. If you do not see the appropriate contact listed, you may need to adjust the Type of contact (see the table above for more details).
