'''Why Info matters:''' Clean company name, type, address, and rep assignment drive filters, map, routing, and reporting everywhere else.

# Change fields.
 +
# Click '''Update''' (appears for the Info tab).
 +
# Confirm success; left-panel stats and list filters will reflect the new data.
 +
 
 +
'''Why Info matters:''' Wrong company name, type, address, or sales reps breaks filtering, map pins, routing, and who “owns” the account.

Path: Callproof Support - New Website - People Menu - Accounts (New web)

Contents

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.

Navigation: People Icon HoverAccounts

Accounts list

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.

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.

Part 1 — Accounts list (/contacts/)

Option A — Main menu

  1. Sign in to CallProof.
  2. In the left sidebar, open Accounts (or Contacts).

Option B — Direct address

  1. Go to your CallProof site and add /contacts/ (example: https://appv2.callproof.com/contacts/).

Accounts Filter

User Filter by assigned sales rep(s). Options: Show Inactive Users, Select All, Clear
Contact Type Account Type(s) — multi-select
City One or more cities (list)
Account Account number search

Parent Company Parent company search
Label Multi-select labels
Custom fields Company-defined account custom fields (when configured)
Has Event Form Specific form; optional Missing checkbox
Event Form Date Begin / End
Has Attachments Accounts with attachments

Filter tips

  • Start broad (Search + User + Type), then narrow with geography and dates.
  • Use Sort + Max Results before Export so the export matches what you expect.
  • Clear Filters resets the panel and refreshes the list.

Quick Links

Link Purpose
Companies Open company list (/contact_companies/)
Add Company Quick add company popup
Accounts Stay on / return to this list
Call History /calls/all/
Autotext /autotext/
Import Account Import wizard (Import Account)
Import Account 2 Alternate import flow
Export Accounts Export current/filtered accounts
Do Not Call Manage do-not-call phones
Labels Manage labels used on accounts

Account Actions (bulk)

Account Actions
  1. Check one or more accounts.
  2. Open Account Actions (or the Account Actions modal tabs).
  3. Choose an action, fill required fields, confirm/save.
Action Purpose Typical requirement
Send Text Message Group SMS to selected accounts (Twilio + permission) Message text (char limit); optional attachment
Add accounts to Sales Rep Assign selected accounts to a rep (managers) Choose Sales Rep; optional Show Inactive Users
Remove accounts from Sales Rep Unassign from a specific rep Choose Sales Rep
Remove all assigned Sales Reps Clear all reps from selected accounts Confirm carefully
Change Account Type Set Account Type for selected rows Choose Account Type
Companies Merge / Merge Accounts Merge flow (availability depends on setup) Follow on-screen merge steps
Create New Task(s) Create tasks for selected accounts Task form fields
Remove Task(s) Remove tasks for selected accounts / reps Choose Sales Reps
Create a Route Build a route from selected accounts Accounts should be mappable when possible
Create a Label Apply/create a label on selected accounts Label name / selection

Why bulk actions matter: They keep territory assignment, types, tasks, and routing consistent across many accounts without opening each one.

Map view, Lasso, and routes

Accounts map
Accounts Map View

When map view is available:

  1. Switch to the map (from the list map controls).
  2. Pins show filtered accounts with locations.
  3. Use Lasso to draw around accounts on the map.
  4. From the lasso popup: Create Route or More Actions (same family of bulk tools).
  5. Use row Add Route icons or map selection, then Save Route when the route count shows selected stops.
  6. Hide Map returns to the table.

Notes:

  • Accounts without latitude/longitude cannot be added to a route from the list icon.
  • Distance on the list uses your user profile location when set.
  • Large filters + map may take longer to load.

Why list Add / Edit / Delete matter

Action Purpose When to use it
Add Account Create a new customer/company record (and optionally first contact, task, opportunity). New prospect or customer win.
Edit / Update Maintain the full account hub and history. Day-to-day selling and data cleanup.
Delete Permanently remove an account record. True duplicates or bad imports — prefer merge/cleanup when unsure.
Filter + Export Get the right working set, then download it. Territory reviews, manager audits, offline analysis.
Account Actions Reassign, retag, task, route, or message many accounts at once. Territory changes, campaigns, weekly planning.

Part 2 — Add Account

Address: /contacts/add_new_account/

Browser title: Add New Account

Breadcrumb: Accounts/Contacts » Add Account/Contact

Add Account
Add Account Form

The Add screen uses steps. Step 1 is always required; others are optional checkboxes:

  1. Add Account (Required)
  2. Contact (Optional) — add a person at the same time
  3. Task (Optional)
  4. Opportunity (Optional)

Check a step to include that form section, fill it in, then click Save. Cancel returns to the list.

Account fields (Step 1)

Field Notes
Company Required. New company name (Accounts/People mode). Other setups may search existing companies.
First Name / Last Name Shown when not in Accounts/People mode (person-centric contact record)
Website
Email
Address / City / State / Zip / Country Location used for map, distance, and routing
Parent Company
Sales Rep Initial assignment
Employee Count Dropdown
County
Labels Add one or more labels (+ button for another line)
Account Type Required

Annual Sales Dropdown
Notes Opening note text
Phone Country code, number, extension, phone type; + to add more phones
Custom fields Company-defined account fields, when configured

Optional Contact / Task / Opportunity on Add

  • Contact: person form (name, role, phones, email, notes, etc.).
  • Task: same task fields used elsewhere (type, date, rep, notes).
  • Opportunity: opportunity form (type, stage, value, dates, etc.).

Tip: You can save the account alone, then add people/tasks later on Update Account if you prefer.

Part 3 — Update Account

Screen title: Update Account (or Update Contact) + the account/company name in quotes

Browser title: Edit Contact

Address: /contacts/edit/<id>/

Breadcrumb: Accounts (or Contacts) » Update Account/Contact "Name"

Edit Account Click (pencil) icon
Account tabs: Info, Details, Event Forms, Notes, Appointments, Tasks, Opportunities, Contacts

This is the full hub for one account. Use the tab bar to move between Info, Details, Event Forms, Notes, Appointments, Tasks, Opportunities, and Contacts (people).

How to open Update Account

  1. From the Accounts list (/contacts/), click the account Name or the Edit icon.
  2. Or go directly to /contacts/edit/<id>/.
  3. Use the breadcrumb to return to the list.

Labels

  2. Click Add Label (+).
  3. Labels appear as tags; click × on a tag to remove it.

Tab 1 — Info

Info tab

Purpose: Edit the main account record everyone searches and filters on.

How to save Info

  1. Click the Info tab.
  2. Change fields.
  3. Click Update (appears for the Info tab).
  4. Confirm success; left-panel stats and list filters will reflect the new data.

Why Info matters: Wrong company name, type, address, or sales reps breaks filtering, map pins, routing, and who “owns” the account.

Tab 2 — Details

Details tab

Purpose: Fill company-specific custom fields that are not on the Info tab (extra data your company configured).

What you see

  • A form of custom fields (text, dropdowns, multi-select, date/time, etc., depending on setup).
  • Field list is unique to your company.

How to use Details

  1. Click Details.
  2. Wait for fields to load.
  3. Enter or change values.
  4. Click Save (Details save button).

Tip: If Details looks empty, your company may not have account custom fields configured yet.

Tab 3 — Event Forms

Event Forms tab
Contact Event Forms

Purpose: See and manage event forms filled for this account (check-ins, surveys, visit forms, etc.).

Table columns

Column What it shows
Event Form Form name
Account Account context
Created When the entry was created
Distance Distance associated with the visit/form (when available)
Points Points earned (when configured)
Completed Date When completed
Completed Completion status
Actions Open / manage the form entry as shown

How to add an event form

  1. Stay on Event Forms, or use left-panel Add Event Form.
  2. Choose a form from the list.
  3. Complete and save the form as usual.
  4. Return to this tab to confirm it appears in the table.

Tips

  • Use pagination if the account has many forms.
  • Add Event Form is also available from the Accounts list Actions column.

Tab 4 — Notes

Notes tab

Purpose: Read and manage written notes for this account (and parent company notes).

Sub-tabs

Sub-tab Purpose
Notes Notes logged on this account
Parent Company Notes related through the parent company relationship

Notes table columns

Column What it shows
(photo) Rep avatar
Rep Who wrote the note
Note Eye icon to view / open the note
Date When it was created
Actions Edit / Delete (typically for managers)

How to add a note

  1. Click Notes.
  2. Click Add Notes.
  3. Enter the note text and save.
  4. The new note appears in the list.

How to edit or delete a note (managers)

  1. Click the eye or Edit icon to change the note.
  2. Click Delete (trash) and confirm to remove it.

Why Notes matter: Notes capture context that does not fit in Info fields—call outcomes, objections, next steps—and stay with the account history.

Tab 5 — Appointments

Appointments tab

Purpose: Review appointments / visits recorded for this account.

Table columns

Column What it shows
(photo) Rep avatar
Rep Who had the appointment
Date Start time, duration; managers may also see Start/End location (lat/long, too far / unable to locate warnings)
Event Form Linked event form (if any)
Follow Up Related follow-up info
Notes Eye icon to view appointment notes
Contact Related person (Accounts/People mode)
Actions Delete (typically managers)

How to use Appointments

  1. Click Appointments.
  2. Review past visits and GPS/location indicators when shown.
  3. Open notes with the eye icon.
  4. Managers can delete an appointment if needed (confirm first).

Tip: New appointments are usually created from the Appointments module or mobile/check-in flows; this tab is the account-centered history.

Tab 6 — Tasks

Tasks Tab
Task View

Purpose: Manage follow-up tasks tied to this account.

Header

  • Add Task — opens add task for this account (/followups/add_task/<id>/). Also available from the left panel.

Table columns

Column What it shows
Rep Assigned rep (with avatar)
Date Start time, duration; may show linked People in Accounts/People mode
Type Task / follow-up type
Notes Eye icon to view task notes

How to add a task

  2. Click Add Task.
  3. Fill type, date/time, notes, assignees as required.
  4. Save, then return to this tab to confirm.

How to complete, edit, or delete

  1. Complete — flip the complete toggle on the row.
  2. Edit — opens edit task (/followups/edit_task/<id>/).
  3. Delete — trash icon, then confirm.

Why Tasks matter: They drive next actions (call back, send quote, revisit) so nothing stalls after a visit or call.

Tab 7 — Opportunities

Purpose: See and manage sales opportunities for this account.

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
