Apptivo’s Customers App has the feature to add associated contacts when a new record of a customer is created. This feature extends to the Targets App. Along with adding a customer to the target list, you can also add the associated contacts of that customer.

For Instance: Consider creating a new customer in the Customers App and adding a Contact to it.

  • Go to Customers App and select Create to create a new record.
Create Customers

  • Once the Customer is created, scroll down in the Overview Page and select Add to associate contact from the Contacts App or Create to create a new contact in the Contacts section.
Overview

  • Here, I have selected Create to create a new contact.

  • You will receive a notification that the contact is created successfully.
