7. Use the minus and plus icons to select the Detail Priority. A "1" indicates that this is the preferred method of contact. A "2" indicates this is the next preferred method of contact, etc.
When Alternate Phone, Cell Phone, Home Phone, or Work Phone is selected, the phone number options become available for selection. These are set up in Students > Address Fields > Contact Detail Flags tab, and may vary by district.
If a user adds a new contact detail and leaves the Detail Priority blank, Focus will auto-increment the Detail Priority for the new contact detail. For example, if a Cell Phone contact detail already exists with a Detail Priority of 1, and the user adds a new Work Phone contact detail and leaves the Detail Priority blank, Focus will set the Detail Priority as 2 when the detail is saved.
If an existing contact detail is updated, Focus will not auto-increment its Detail Priority.
8. Select the contact detail flags, such as Unlisted, Callout, Blocked, SMS, or UNSUBSCRIBE, as needed.
If an attendance mobile alert has been set up by the district, you can select the SMS check box to indicate that the contact is accepting attendance texts. If the contact has indicated that text message are not to be sent to the entered phone number, you can select the UNSUBSCRIBE check box instead.
Attendance texts can be set up via Setup > System Preferences > School Preferences/Default School Preferences > Attendance/General tabs.
9. Press Enter to add the row.
The newly added row will turn yellow to indicate changes have been made. A new blank row is available where you can enter more contact details.
