Additional Information

The WOE.MAINT authorization key, defined for Customer Maintenance, also applies to Contact Maintenance.

If you have Level 3 or Level 4 assigned, when you are managing an order and want to change contact information, the system prompts you to replace the main contact, add as additional parameter, or use it for that order only.

In this scenario, if you have Level 3 you must also be assigned as the inside or outside salesperson on the contact record.
