Assigning and Configuring Person Types in the File Mask

This article explains how to assign contact roles to persons, add the appropriate "Type", where to create additional persons, and how to extend contact types individually.

Adding Persons under "Further Application Data"

In the "Further Application Data" section, contacts can be searched using the four-character input and assigned the appropriate "Type". However, the drop-down menu only contains a limited selection of person types.

Adding Further Persons under "Miscellaneous"

Person types that are not available in the drop-down under "Further Application Data" can be created in the file mask under "Miscellaneous" in the "Persons" section. The full selection of all contact types is available here.

Extending Contact Types Individually

The list of available person types can be customised under Settings ➔ Enumerations ➔ Contact Types. New entries are then available system-wide in the file mask.

Tip: Showing Hidden Contacts

Contacts that have already been recorded in the file mask but are currently not visible can be shown again by activating the "show all" checkbox. This function is available both under "Further Application Data" and under "Miscellaneous".
