2. #### Tracking the Best Calling Times To record and track the best time to call on a contact (typically, a physician or another health care provider), complete the following procedure to add the best calling time. Creating this record allows you to track when a contact is available at a given address. A contact record can contain zero or more best times to call, and it can have many addresses, each of which might contain zero or more best times to call. A contact call must have at least one address selected, and the information about the best times to call must be available for display to the sales representative for that contact at the selected address. NOTE: You might need to add the Contact Best Times section to your Contact Detail page or Contact Call Detail page. For information about personalizing Detail page layouts, see Changing Your Detail Page Layout. If the Contact Best Times section is not available to add to your page layout, then contact your company administrator. NOTE: The Contact Best Times feature is available only in Oracle CRM On Demand Life Sciences Edition. To track the best calling time From the Contact Detail page, scroll to the Contact Best Times section, and click New. Complete the fields described in the following table.
