Note: Sometimes Contacts are required for other IMS functionality i.e., informing customers automatically, which is a feature of the Planned Work and Impact Analysis module.  

 

The process for relating either a Contact or Customer is similar.

 

From their respective Form Actions Button Bar:

 

In this example a Contact is related to a Queue object

 

▪Select the required related object

▪Fill in the corresponding popup window with the required information (Queue: Department1)

▪Click on the Save icon at the lower left of each popup window

▪Refresh the Contacts Form - left click on the binoculars icon

 

A Queues Tab will appear in the lower half of the form, with the Contact/Queue details.

 

Note: If the Queues tab is already present, it indicates that this Contact has previously been related to a Queue/s
