More Information

If you do not want to use the "Encourage Contact Data" requests feature in Platinum that encourages users to enter in a "Mobile Telephone Number" and a "Email Address", else enter in a reason why this is not being entered. Then you will need:

• Go to " Reports & Settings Maintenance Options System Administrator System Parameters".
