Account Contacts are viewed in Account / Communication / Contacts
Overview
Contacts contain contact details for various personnel related to the account (account administrators, billing contacts, technical contacts, on-site contacts, etc.). From this screen you can add and remove these contacts or modify their contact details.
Contacts Panel
The Contacts panel towards the left of this screen allows you to select existing contacts on the account in order to view or edit the contact details in the Edit Contact panel (shown when a contact is selected). Actions are also available in this panel which are shown as icons above the Filter text box. The available actions are described below.

Edit Contact Panel
The information in this panel reflects the currently selected contact. From here you can change contact details (fields will display a red left border if a value is required and purple text if the field is read-only and cannot be modified).

Use Address for Taxing: this option will only appear on billing contacts. When enabled this setting will cause the physical address of the billing contact to be used to determine what taxes to apply to service charges, provided no service contact exists on the account. If a service contact is setup on the account that contact's address will be used and this setting will be ignored
