Work with contacts

A contact in WorkZone can, for example, be a person, employee, municipality, organization, or institution. A contact is identified by both a contact type and an ID. Contact types could be Persons (with CPR), Persons (without CPR), Companies (with CVR), Companies (without CVR), or SOR institutions.

Contact IDs are unique for each contact and are auto-generated as part the synchronization of data with registers such as CPR , CVR, and SOR.

You can access the contacts from all contact pages and add contacts as parties to cases and documents.

To indicate a relation between multiple contacts (for example, for legal guardians, parents, and so on), you can create contact references. Existing contact references are displayed in the Contact references section on the contact page and in the contact preview pane.
