The contact information can be deleted with a single mouse click. Before you delete a contact, however, you need to make a decision on the how many users should be given the delete permission to remove these contents.

The users have to be aware that the customers who have the following records associated with them cannot be deleted.  The following records include
  • Service contracts
  • Active Customer portal users
  • Contracts

and so on.

Therefore, these associated records need to be removed before deleting the contacts.

Apptivo Customers App allows you to provide access to the users who wants to remove the contact details associated with a customer in customers app. The users who have privilege for ”Remove Contact”, can use the option found in the overview page of a Customer record.

  1. Log in and access Customers App from your universal navigation menu bar.
  2. Click on “More” icon and select “Settings” located at the app header bar.
