Some employees may use the same contact for different purposes. Use the Share Contact command to copy the contact automatically and create an additional contact record for this employee.
Once contacts are shared, editing one shared contact record will automatically update all contacts linked to it by sharing. All fields for shared contacts are therefore identical. If the contacts should have different phone numbers, they cannot be shared.
Click the checkbox beside the contact to be edited, and click the Share button. The Share contact window opens.
Select the type for the new contact record. Note: Once an contact type has been used in sharing, it is no longer included in the Share Contact popup.
Click Save. The contact is copied to the new record, and both contacts are displayed with the Shared box checked.
