Focus: The focus of this public FAQ/Self Help guide is to provide you with an overview and details on how to edit contact fields via the Real-time View page of your account. At this time, you can change “Lead Owner”.
Why change the Owner?: Moving a contact between users can allow a team to share this contact’s data and manage them on the many steps of the sales engagement process. Since an email address can only exist once within a team, this will allow a simpler process of sharing information and moving the contact between members of teams.
Warning! - When changing the Owner of the contact, how does this affect the contact flows, existing actions, etc…? If there are any ongoing flows for the contact(s) being moved from another user and assigned to you, those flows will now be processed and sent from your email address. This includes any actions that have not yet processed or are waiting to be processed.
Permission Access: Only Owner, Administrator and Manager team permissions can change the ownership of a contact in bulk. Team member permissions will not have access. Click here for more info about Team member permissions.
Step 1: Access Real-time View and make your selection(s). On the Real-time View screen, select multiple contacts by checking “all” or select individual contacts via their avatar to the left of their name. Then click on the ellipsis “...” for the “Bulk Edit” option.
Step 2: Options to edit. At this time, we have 1 “field” that can be used to edit.
Step 2-A: Change ownership of the contact. If you would like to change the owner of the contact, select “Owner” for the field, and then select the new owner.
Step 3: Edit Review. The last step is to review the fields that will be changed. Please note that if you change the Owner or Pipeline/Stage, it will change for ALL contacts inside of the deal card who are sharing company data. Once ready, click on the “Update X contacts” button to proceed.
Step 4: Completed Congratulations, you have updated your contacts!
