Relationships for contacts with multiple accounts

[tlck9]

Hi there

I am a requirement to assign a contact to multiple accounts can this be done.

The contact will work over potentially 20 different accounts

If this is possible then can you lte me know how this is possible and how much technical ability I'm going to need

Many Thanks

this can already be done. If you have a contact who is currently linked to Account A, and you want to add this person to Account B, click into Account B, scroll to the Contacts subpanel, click the select button, and select your contact. You can do this any number of times and add the contact to any number of accounts. Keep in mind that the Account Name field on the Contact record will always update to display the most recent account you added them to.

thanks for the quick response that helps a great deal, I had visions of having to input the person several times over, but this works

Thanks

Hi,

I am attaching a small module that will display an Accounts subpanel on the contact showing all the accounts it is linked to. I happened to build this for a demo the other day.

Hi mvngti,

The module you designed seems to be what I am looking. I am pretty new to SugarCRM.
Could you tell me if it works with v5.2.0?

Thanks

Should work perfectly in 5.2 - it was built for 5.2.0j Enterprise.
