Add Several Contacts to Sub-Rent Receive/Return

You can add multiple contacts to the same sub-rent receive/return. This way, the person in charge has the possibility to call another contact person in case the main contact is not available. This is only possible if the vendor has specified that they want the rental object to be delivered directly to the customer/ to be returned directly from the customer. To add several contacts, proceed as follows:

Open a sub-rent receive/return.
Open the Contacts tab. If the Contacts register is not visible, please check if direct shipment/direct return is set for the vendor.
If you select a contact for the Receive/Return Contact in the General tab, the contact will already be added to the table.
To add several contacts to a sub-rent receive/return, click on the three dots in the Contact Name column.

Add Contacts to a Sub-Rent Receive/Return

A list with all contacts that are linked to the sub-rent contract opens.
Select a contact from the list.
All other columns will be filled in automatically.
Repeat this step as often as needed. You might also add a contact manually so that it doesn’t get added to the system.
If you activate the check box in the Default Contact column, the contact will always be listed first and will be automatically transferred to the Receive/Return Contact field in the General register.
