Activities

Use the Activities function to record all actions relating to a contact, allowing you to capture a historical record of the things your company has done for a specific contact.

Activities can be added for contact records either automatically or manually. When you add, update, or delete a contact, or generate a campaign involving a contact, CRM automatically records that activity using one of the system activity types and associates it with the contact. You can also manually add activity records and associate them with contacts to record contact actions, such as responses to campaigns, follow ups resulting from contact requests, or communications sent to contacts for campaigns or for general purposes.

Because activities only record what has happened for a specific contact, there is no expiration date, or follow-up items associated with an activity. If you need to record this type of information, add a task to the activity.

Use the Toggle button () to switch between grid view and field view.
