How to update a contact’s email address

To update the email address for a contact in Legl, follow these steps:

  1. Access the Contacts Section:

    • Navigate to the 'Contacts' section in your Legl dashboard.

  2. Locate the Specific Contact:

    • Use the search function to find the contact whose email address you wish to update.

  3. Edit the Email Address:

    • Hover over the contact's current email address and click 'Edit'.

    • Enter the new email address and click 'Submit'.

Important Considerations:

  • Open Requests:

    • When you update a contact's email address, any open requests associated with that contact will be automatically closed and recreated with the new email details. This ensures that all outstanding pay or engage requests use the correct contact information.

  • Resending Requests:

    • After updating the email address, the recreated requests will need to be resent to the contact.

    • To do this, go to 'Recent Activities', select the relevant request, and click 'Send email'.

    • You can also enable reminders to automatically follow up with the contact after 1, 3, 7, 14, and 30 days.
