How To: Create a Client Contact Record

Audience: Client Intake Coordinator, Mentor

Introduction

If a person has never requested mentoring services from SCORE, not migrated from CORE (no activity during FY19 or FY20), or if they were initially assigned to a chapter still on CORE but were reassigned to a chapter already live on Engage, you will need to create a client contact record for them in Engage.

For clients who have not submitted a mentor request form, such as walk-ins or clients who contact the chapter by phone, this article will explain how to create a record for them in Engage as a Client Intake Coordinator and as a Mentor.
