Emails
When you click the add option, you may select the type of email from the drop-down menu (Primary, Business, or Private), then enter the email address. It is possible to add more than one type of email address; the order the emails are listed in is insignificant. Note: Gaps are not allowed (i.e. you must create the email with the index [0] if you want to populate the email with the index [1]).
Phones
When you click the add option, you may select the type of phone from the drop-down menu (Business, Home, Mobile, or Fax), then enter the phone number. It is possible to add more than one type of phone number; the order the numbers are listed in is insignificant. Note: Gaps are not allowed (i.e. you must create phone numbers with the index [0] if you want to populate the email with the index [1]).
Note the following for existing phone numbers:
- Existing phones in the contact are searched by phone number.
- If an existing phone is found, its type is updated.
- If an existing phone is not found, it is added to the list of phones in the contact list.
- There is no way to delete a phone number (or change a phone number) via the Bright Pattern Update Object block and must be done via Agent Desktop; deleting phone numbers is deemed too complex for this iteration of scenario block design.
