Contact Title

🧾 Contact Titles Overview

Each Contact is assigned a Title (e.g. Mr, Mrs, Dr, Prof, etc.) to personalize communication and maintain data consistency.

📍 Accessing Titles

Navigate to: File → Configuration → Contacts → Titles

🛠️ Creating & Managing Titles

You can define an unlimited number of Titles. Each Title includes the following configurable fields:

Field

Purpose

Description

The label for the Title (e.g. Dr, Rev, Mx)

Gender

Choose from: Male, Female, or Unknown

Default Salutation

Used when First Name or Title + Last Name is unavailable (e.g. Sir/Madam)

Inactive

Tick to retire the Title from active use (removes it from lookup options)

💡 Best Practices

  • Use clear descriptions to avoid confusion (e.g. distinguish Dr (Medical) vs Dr (Academic)).

  • Set gender to Unknown for inclusive or non-binary titles like Mx.

  • Regularly review inactive titles to keep the list clean and relevant.
