Don’t expect much of an audience for this on Lemmy, but:
Maybe it’s just the places I’ve worked, but seems like I’m constantly wading through contacts who are gone - I don’t want to delete them because the history could be helpful, but seems like there should be a quick, native way to mark them. Maybe once marked those names are grayed out or something.
My one company had a custom field that you could check, but then there was no special handling of those contacts in terms of how they’re displayed - just you could use it to exclude results in reports.
You must log in or register to comment.
I edit the name to read “(historical) Firstname Lastname” – which largely preserves all functionality and histort, but also puts bottom line up front. When I make the edit, I usually add a comment indicating who the new contact is, if I know who they are.
That’s not a bad approach, thanks for the suggestion.
Not sure if it’s related, but when someone left the company I work in, it’s username is changed to x_username so they could be easily filtered out in reports or other systems.
