FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the difference between Contacts and related Contacts?

The 'Related Contacts' list for an Organization is a list of all Contacts whose 'Organization Name' field matches the Organization in question.

What is the difference between Contacts related and contact roles?

A contact is someone directly associated with an account. For example, Kate Chamberlain is the Director of Event Planning for Portsmouth College, so she is listed in the Contacts related list on that account. A contact role, however, describes the part a person plays on the account.

Can a contact be related to multiple accounts in Salesforce?

When you use Contacts to Multiple Accounts, each contact still requires a primary account (the account in the Account Name field). The contact and its primary account have a direct relationship. But you can add other accounts to the contact. These secondary account-contact relationships are indirect.
