While some actions for updating the most commonly changed data for a contact can be done in the summary modal actions button, every bit of data sheepCRM has related to the contact record can be viewed, added and updated in the contact record's detailed sidepanel view. Find the contact you wish to edit, bring up the summary modal and click on the view contact button to open up the sidepanel.

The notes tab is essentially a journal for the current contact. Any notes referring to this contact as well as any linked communications (through sheepCRM drop box) will be stored in this tab. Notes can be filtered by enter keywords in the searchbar at the top of the tab. Click on a note to bring up a window with more details.

Adding a new note

To add a new note, click on the add note button at the bottom of the notes tab. This will bring up a window with the following fields:

  • Title
    Enter a short title or summary for the note.

  • Note
    Enter any details of the note here. If the note is regarding a file, it's good practice to describe or outline the content of the file in this field.

  • Files / Attachments
    If applicable, upload a file with the note. Click on the upload button and select the file to add - or from your documents window click and drag the file into the designated box to automatically upload the file.

Editing an existing note
