W030: Create contact

Creates a contact record in the shared pool. Triggered from any place that surfaces the shared contacts UI (Customer Detail, Vendor Detail, etc.). Does not link the contact to anything; linking is a separate workflow.

Steps

1. Insert the contact. Call Contacts.createContact.

Returns

The new contact.

Business rules

• Standalone creation. A contact can exist with no entity links. Linking happens via W039 or the combined Find-or-create workflow (W043).

Errors

None.
