contact
A person with whom a user might be required to phone or email to pursue
a selling relationship. Various business objects can refer to a contact,
and this does not require a relationship between the customer and contact.
In Siebel CRM, a contact attribute in the context of a business object
is a party that might or might not have a relationship defined. In Outlook, a contact attribute
in the context of a business object is the same as the Contact folder.
Therefore, a contact can be a consumer and can also be an employee of
an organization.
