Contact Type List

Contact Types are created by the SSO System Admin role and the contact data is managed by the Contact Admin in SSO.  To access the Contact Type List, log in to SSO then click the Contact Admin button in the upper right of the SSO Menu.

Contact Type List Tab

The ‘Contact Type List’ tab lists the contact types available for update.

To see only contact types associated with a specific application, use the Application drop down to filter the list by Application.  Similarly, if you know the name of the contact type you would like to see, type the name into the Contact Type search box and click Search.

  • Application – the name of the application that is consuming the contact data for that contact type
  • Description – brief description how the application is using the data in that contact type

Change Log Tab

The Change Log tab lists the changes made to the contact types starting with the date listed in the “Show log in descending order starting from” text box.
