Contacts

The Contacts page is the primary CRM workspace for managing customer accounts. From this page you can search contacts, manage account information, create opportunities and tasks, submit event forms, make calls, send text messages, build routes, view account history, and export contact data.

Index of Contact in Callproof.

Navigation: People → Contacts (or Accounts when the People Tab is enabled) Note: When the People Tab feature is enabled, this page is labeled Accounts instead of Contacts.

• Users must be logged in.
• Contact visibility depends on the user's Account Radius and assignment settings.
• Managers and Market Managers have additional search filters and bulk actions.
• Export, delete, and communication features depend on user permissions.

1. Log in to your CallProof account.
2. Hover over People.
3. Click Contacts (or Accounts).
4. The Contacts page opens.

Search Contacts

Narrow a large database to the accounts you need right now—by name, company, phone, email, type, city, state, zip, country, account number, or date ranges (created, last contacted, last appointment). Managers and market managers can also filter by User (including inactive users) and Regions so they review a rep’s book or a territory instead of the whole company. Without search, the list is too large to work productively.

User	Managers and Market Managers can search accounts assigned to selected users.
