Multiple contacts in one company?

Hi all, a quick question on something that's always bugged me. If I enter contact info for multiple employees at the same company, I can never see who those employees are when scrolling through my contact list.
For instance, I if enter the contact info for 4 people at a company called "Floserve", when scrolling through my contacts later on, all I see is 4 duplicate entrees called "Floserve". I have to select them all individually to get the iPhone to scroll to the next field where I can see each employee's name. This is a real pain with 20+ people I need to contact at one company. Is there anyway I can flag people as working at the same company, but have my contacts sorted by their names, and not the duplicated company name?

The way I handle this issue is as one poster already suggested, plus groups. First, the "company" checkbox is for companies, not really people, so it should only be used for the company's entry, not the people associated with it. You can still put the company info in each of the contacts, right where it says "company" when you edit the contact, but don't check the company checkbox.
Next, create a group for each company that has several people, and that you want to have such a group. Drag those contacts into that group. (I use smart groups to collect them: just set a condition whereby the "company" is the company's name, then drag the resulting smart groups contacts into the real group you named after the company). Now when you sync, if you're showing "All Contacts", the people will appear in their alphabetical place, and if you just want to see those who are at that company, just tap "Groups" in the upper left, and tap the group you created for that company. The list will then populate with only those who are in that company. So I have several groups like that, one for each company that has more than just a couple of names that I want to be able to get to by company.

  • Address Book - Create multiple contacts at one company?

    I am using Address Book v 4.0.4 and I want to be able to create multiple contacts at one company without having to reenter the Company, Tel. and Address information each time.
    Is there a way to duplicate an address, say the basic company address, to make the process of entering multiple people at one company any faster?
    Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks, Michel

    I talked to Apple today and here is how you create multiple contacts at one address, company etc. without having to reenter everything.
    1) In Address Book, highlight a contact in the name list
    2) Go to the Edit Menu & COPY
    3) Go back to the Edit Menu & PASTE
    4) Make changes to the new 'duplicated' contact
    Seems easy if you know how to do it.

  • Contacts - multiple contacts in one company

    Hello, just wondering if it's possible to put multiple contacts at the one business. eg. if I have three contacts at DHL for instance, currently I see 3 occurrences of DHL in the list of contacts because I have ticked 'Company' in each of those contact cards. is there a way to have various people details but within the one card? (or should I be doing something completely different?)

    I understand that I can add fields and call them what I want but I don't think I can control where those new fields go. their position seems predetermined. Also ideally I'd have those separator lines between each employee too. I can't see how I can achieve this unless i can create new templates and swap templates when I want. I see that one can edit the template but that seems to be the end the matter. and i can't control separators either i don't think.
    You could look at editing the template, but first of all ensure that you have at least two backups of your present Contacts as it is.
    It can be found by opening Contacts and in the menu bar, select Preferences and navigate to Templates
    There you can add and remove to build your own template. But, a word of caution, I am not sure if that would then be the Template for all the contacts that you have. Be sure to have at least two independent backups before attempting this. Make sure that you know how to restore from that backups.

  • Multiple currencies under one company code for contracts

    Gooday!
    We have a new schenario ( In RE-FX) where we have a couple of contracts which were negotiated with the landlord that needs to be settled in Rand, whilst the company code are setup for another currency, which is dollar (caters for the bulk of the contracts). So each time you create a new contract the currency is already greyed out (Dollar), which obviously means that it cannot be changed there.
    Apparently the company code can be setup in FI to accommodate secondary currencies, however, this seems not to be the case in RE-FX.
    My question is this, is it possible to have multiple currency contracts under one company code in RE-FX, and if so, do one set it up in FI or RE-FX?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    Conditions in Foreign Currency (New)
    As of SAP ECC 6.0, Enterprise Extension Financials, Enhancement Package 2 (EA-FIN 602), Business Function Real Estate (RE_GEN_CI_1), you can enter conditions for contracts, rental objects, or contract offers that are in a currency that differs from the local currency of the company code.
    You can enter the currency directly when processing conditions. You can also enter a currency translation rule in the posting term. The rule is then used for all conditions to which this posting term is assigned.
    You specify in Customizing which currency translation rules are allowed for each contract type and usage type.

  • Multiple legal entities one company code

    Dear Gurus,
    We are currently in detail design of an ERP system using SAP 6.0.   We have multiple legal entities and we are trying to determine if each legal entity should also be a company code in SAP. Has anyone setup SAP using a Company Code that was not a legal entity? For example multiple legal entities as one company code or one legal entity as multiple company codes. What are the pros and cons?
    Thank you.

    multiple legal entities as one company code is POSSIBLE.
    one legal entity as multiple company codes is NOT possible.
    However, there may be different criteria to create a company code. The best criteria is if your entity is in different country and need to present your books of accounts to stakeholders, the go with a separate company code.
    If you have multiple legal entities, which are in the same country and there is no issue if you present the books of accounts of all those legal entites in a single set of accounts, then go with a single company code, this would be easier and less maintenance costs in the future.
    If there is no legal requirement to create each legal entity as a separate company code, then avoid it.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Multiple contacts in one business card in Address book

    Does anyone know if it is possible to add more then one contact into the same card. I have business contacts where sometimes I have two reps I work with. It would be great to have them on the same business card in the Addy book.
    Any ideas.

    You may need to use Add Field in Preferences/Templates to turn it on for new cards, or Card/Add Field for individual cards. Once on it can have label values such as "Friend" "Father" "Assistant" etc, or of course you can set your own. You put a name in the value portion of the field; subsequently clicking on the label allows opening of the card with the related name. You can have multiple related names on a contact card.
    Unfortunately you can't set up the link automatically; it would be nice if you could drop one card on another and it would prompt you for which related field label to use.
    You could for example have a master card for some company that you do business with, and on that card put links to the various people within the company.

  • Payment in Multiple Currency in one Company Code.

    Dear Team,
    Scenario:
    Country : Saudi Arabia : 99 Grouping.
    Company Code Currency: Saudi Riyal (SAR).
    There are some independent contractors for whom their respective currency payment to be made. We hire an employee for the above company code currency (SAR), Basic Pay to maintain in EURO, All allowances in EURO.
    During payroll run, this amount is getting converted to Base Currency SAR.
    How would I pay these employees in EURO or other currencies only. Should this be taken care from Finance.
    We have a feature of DTAKT - Sending Banks. What is the importance of this feature in DME and any instruction will be given to FI by this Sending Banks Currency.
    Regards
    Team Member.

    Dear Carlos,
    Thanks for the reply. Maintaining Payment Currency in INfotype 0009, creating an entry in BT table with EUR. And on DME run, picking up the EUR.
    Need some clarification:
    1) In the DME file, the actual amount is 3,200.00 EUR but shown as 3200000 i.e. three decimal places. How can we restrict this settings. Is this from FI. We have checked the node Set Decimal places for curency, but this was not maintained. By standard, it is two.
    2) As clarified, the payslip shows the amounts in SAR only. If we create a new payslip format, can we able to convert the SAR to EUR for displaying in the payslip and if so, could you please let me know the details.
    3) During conversion, the amounts are not getting rounded. If we post the same amounts, in future would there be any problem..
    Thanks and Regards
    Team Member.

  • Multiple contacts from one entry

    When I do a search in contacts 3 come up for each of my contacts. How do I change this?

    Hey HBLubys,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Are all these results attached to a different service?  For example: Twitter, Facebook and Address Book?
    In Contacts, swipe from the top and choose Settings and which contact lists are appearing as On?
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.

  • TS2776 I have my iphone 5 for 7 months now and from time to time, my contacts, without notice, get scrambled, i.e., multiple contacts go into one, or I lose contacts....How does this happen and why?   And is there a quick fix to reset the contacts as they

    I have my iphone 5 for 7 months now and from time to time, and without warning, my contacts get scambled, i.e., multiple contacts become one.   I am losing my patience.   Help.

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • What is the most efficient way to delete multiple contacts

    How can I delete multiple contacts at one time?

    Ok, here was the fix.  I found that the date added was 18 minutes apart for the duplicates.  Since half the music was added at :19  and half was added at :37, I sorted by date added in the display duplicates window, and deleted the music by date!  It took 5 minutes.  I know enough to get me in and out of trouble, and that's all I know!

  • I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
    If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
    Hope that helps!
