This is a specialized iteration of the Customer contact type which oversees a Departmental Hierarchy unit. In PCR-360, Departmental Hierarchies are departments – and those departments contain Customers. Coordinators are required to be Customers themselves, and the application enforces this requirement when the types are manually added. Any Coordinator that is assigned to a Departmental Hierarchy has the privileges to submit Service Requests in the CustomerCenter for other Customers of that Departmental Hierarchy. The Coordinator can also view bills for other Customers in their Departmental Hierarchy. Additionally, when a Departmental Hierarchy is specified as the owner of any service or equipment, all communications (notifications) regarding that service or equipment is sent to the Coordinators. See Setting up Coordinators for more details.

For more information on securing the Replace button, see the Permissions and Best Practices sections.

The Delete Contact checkbox serves a dual purpose. The default behavior leaves the checkbox unchecked. This makes the Replace function leave the Replaced Contact Active and simply replace it anywhere it has been previously associated if it can. If the User selects the Delete Contact checkbox, the Replace functionality tries to delete the existing Contact. If the Contact cannot be deleted because of any lingering associations, the Replaced Contact record is set to Inactive instead.
