StatusContact Category
CategoryContact Status, TagIf Redtail category is blank or empty → default to “New” contact status in Swivel
Contact statuses are configured specified for each contact category in Swivel.
This means if a Redtail category correlates to multiple Redtail statuses, multiple Swivel Statuses will be created in Swivel for each respective Swivel Category created.
For example: A Client 100+ may appear as a status for Category 1, and another, separate status A Client 100+ will be configured on Category 2, and so forth
