Update a Contact's Details
Process Overview
Placement Administrators and Placement Officers have access to update Contact records as required.
If the Contact record needs to be updated due to a recent or future change, insert a new effective dated row to update the Contact record as at the date of the change. If the Contact record needs to be corrected rather than updated (ie. incorrect information has been entered for the Contact), the record should be corrected by a Placement Administrator using ‘Correction’ mode (refer to the ‘Correcting a Contact Record’ process page).
Step by Step Instructions
Note: This process provides instructions on how to update a Contact’s basic details (eg. name, Contact Reference Number, Comments, etc). Instructions on how to update a Contact’s Organisation and Site details are available from the ‘Updating a Contact Record’ process page.
