Link chat to existing contact

When you respond to a chat, SuperOffice will automatically try to find the customer in SuperOffice based on the provided information (email address and name). If the customer is already registered as a contact in SuperOffice, you can display relevant information about them in the side panel on the right side of the Chat screen. Double-click a record to view it. The chat session is also linked to the contact and available as a record in the Activities section tab in the Company screen and Contact screen. First, you must link the customer to a contact in SuperOffice.
