Adding a Contact Record

Contact records must always link to a company record. However, while a contact can only have one company, a company can (and often will) have many contacts.

The best way to add a contact is from a company record. If the company does not have a record in Bullhorn yet, you must add and save the company record first and then add the contact record from that newly created company. For instructions on adding a company, view the Adding a Company Record article. If you have Enterprise Edition, you can also add a contact by converting a lead. For instructions, view the Converting a Lead Record to a Contact, Company, and Opportunity Record article.


Adding a Contact Record to an Existing Company

  1. On the company record, from the Actions drop-down, select Add Contact.
    • S-Release: From the Select an Action drop-down, select Add Contact.

  2. Enter the contact’s First Name, Last Name, Status, and Primary Email.
  3. Enter the reminder of the required information and/or modify information as necessary.
  4. Click Save.

You can view all contacts associated with a company from the Contacts tab on that Company record. Note that you can also filter contacts on this tab by Owner(s) or Department(s).
