Top Producer® 8i CRM: Editing an Activity

Top Producer CRM allows you to make changes to an activity once it’s been saved. In order to make changes, you must open the activity’s full details, which can be done from various locations:

  • From the Activities Summary page
  • From the Activities tab of a contact, listing, or closing record

Any time you open an existing activity, the Activity Details form is displayed.

  1. The only field that can’t be changed is the activity type.
  2. Add or edit the activity details.
  3. If you’d like to link a contact to the activity, locate them in the Contacts Look-Up portlet on the right of the page and drag them into the activity. If you’d like to add multiple contacts at the same time, click the Search & Attach Multiple Contacts link to open the Search for Contacts form. To remove a linked contact, click the Delete Contact 8i Edit Activity icon next to a contact’s name.
  4. If the activity is an email, letter, postcard, envelope, or label, you can change the category and template. Click the Template Preview link to open a preview of the template with sample data on a separate browser tab. Click the Edit Template link to make changes to the selected template for this activity only.

Activity Details Form Buttons and Links

Once you’ve made changes to an activity, you can use the form buttons and links to save, preview, mark the activity done, etc.
