Transfer a Contact to Another Team

Another way that Aidium makes it easy for your CRM to grow with you, your Team and Enterprise setup is by allowing for quick and easy transfer of a contact from one team to another.

Transferring a contact from one team to another takes just a few steps. However, due to the independence of Teams to customize their own setup, tags, custom fields and automations - there are limits to the data and assignments that can transfer with the contact.

It's important that you and the recipient of the contact(s) being transferred understand what is and is not part of the team transfer.

1. What data from the Contact is transferred?

• Name, Email, Phone, etc.
• Notes
• Communication history
• Status (if the status doesn’t exist on the destination team, the status will be created and applied to the contact.)

2. What data from the Contact is NOT transferred?

• Tags
• Custom contact fields
• Linked contacts and their relationships (spouse, co-borrowers, realtors, etc.)
• Transactions (transfers are not allowed if the contact is associated with any transaction)
• Automations the contact is in or the position within those automations

3. Who can perform transfers?

• CRM Admins and Owners - These users have access to all teams.
• Team Leads - The user initiating the transfer must exist on both the source and destination teams.

4. Which scenarios prevent transfers?

• A contact with same email address and/or phone number exists on the destination team
• A contact has transactions on the source team (any transaction OR transaction on which they are a borrower/co-borrower)

5. What (could) happen after a transfer?

• After transferring a contact, if automation(s) exist with trigger conditions that match the newly transferred contact in the recipient team - those automation(s) will be assigned.
