Managing Bulk Actions on Contacts

What this does

This guide explains how to manage bulk actions on contacts in Franmantra CRM.

Before you start

  • Sign in to Franmantra with a role that has permission to use this area.
  • Confirm you are working in the correct Sub-account before making changes.

Steps

Bulk actions help you save time by applying the same operation to multiple contacts at once. Instead of updating each contact individually, you can assign opportunities, Workflows, notes, tags, send emails, or even delete multiple contacts in one go.

Go to the Contacts Page

  • In the header, we have the Contact option. When you hover over it, a dropdown shows the option "Contacts".
  • When you click on "Contacts", you will land directly on the Contacts Details page.
