Accounts (New web)

Path: Callproof Support - New Website - People Menu - Accounts and Contacts

Accounts and Contacts

List screen title: Accounts (or Contacts, depending on company setup) Browser title: Accounts Main address: /contacts/

Add screen: Add Account / Add Contact — /contacts/add_new_account/ Edit / Update screen: Update Account / Update Contact — /contacts/edit/<id>/

This is the core CRM screen. Use it to find accounts, filter and map them, run bulk actions, add new accounts, and open an account to manage people (contacts), phones, emails, notes, tasks, opportunities, event forms, and activity.

Important naming (read first)

Term in CallProof	What it means
Account	A company / customer record on the main list (/contacts/). Most companies with the People/Accounts setup use this word.
Contact (person)	A person who works at that account (also called personnel). Managed on the account’s Contacts tab.
Contact (older naming)	On some companies without the Accounts/People setup, the main list may say Contacts instead of Accounts. The address is still /contacts/.
Account Type	Category of the account (same idea as Contact Type / Account Types setup elsewhere).
Company	Parent company name linked to the account (also managed under Companies).

This guide uses Account for the main record and Contact for people at that account. Where the UI says Contacts for the list, the steps are the same.

Accounts list

How the pieces fit together

Screen	Address	Purpose
Accounts list	/contacts/	Search, filter, select, map, bulk actions, open account
Add Account	/contacts/add_new_account/	Create account (+ optional contact, task, opportunity)
Update Account	/contacts/edit/<id>/	Full account hub: Info, Details, Event Forms, Notes, Appointments, Tasks, Opportunities, Contacts
Companies	/contact_companies/	Company directory (Quick Links)
Do Not Call	via Quick Links	Manage DNC phones
Labels	via Quick Links	Manage account labels
Import / Export	via Quick Links	Bring accounts in or export filtered results

Typical flow:

1. Filter or search on Accounts
2. Open an account (name or Edit)
3. Maintain Info, phones, emails, labels
4. Add Contacts (people), notes, tasks, opportunities, event forms
5. Use Account Actions / Map for bulk work and routing

Permissions

• You must be signed in.
• What you see depends on role and company settings (manager vs rep, Twilio calling/SMS, MMS group text, delete personnel, activity stats column, and more).
• Managers often see Sales Rep assignment controls and extra bulk actions.
• Some features appear only when enabled for your company (map, Twilio call buttons, Activity Stats column, People/Accounts mode).
• Company menu permissions control whether Accounts appears in the sidebar.

Tips and important notes

• Accounts = companies/customers on the list; Contacts = people on the Contacts tab (in Accounts/People mode).
• Always set Company Name, Account Type, and a good Address so map, distance, and filters work.
• Assign Sales Reps so reps only see the right book of business.
• Use Labels for campaigns and temporary working sets; filter by Label later.
• Prefer Account Actions over one-by-one edits for territory moves.
• Import/Export live under Quick Links; export after you apply the filter you want.
• Do Not Call / Do Not Text must be respected — struck-through or grey SMS icons mean do not contact that way.
• Delete is permanent for the account; use carefully (duplicates tools may exist elsewhere).
• Custom fields and Activity Stats appear only when enabled for your company.
• After major Info changes (address/type/reps), re-check map pins and filters.

Need help?

• Cannot find an account: clear filters, widen Max Results, search company name or account number
• No phones / cannot call: add a phone; confirm Twilio permissions; check Do Not Call
• Map empty: accounts need address geocoding (lat/long); filter may exclude them
• Contacts tab empty: Add Contacts (people) under the account
• Wrong rep seeing accounts: fix Sales Reps on Info or use Account Actions
• Import issues: use Import Account / Import Account 2 from Quick Links and follow the sample CSV
• Other issues: email support@callproof.com
