→The Contacts Field
==The Contacts Field==
The standard UTA Level 1 field '''Contacts''' is used to establish a direct relationship between multiple people to the same [[Level 1 Entity]]. When you add the '''Contacts''' field to the [[Level 1 Entity]] it will display as a section in on the [[Level 1 Entity]]Record:

When you assign a contact contacts are assigned to the Level 1 entity you can select a [[Role]] to describe that contact's engagement with the [[Level 1 Entity]].
*For example, if your UTA is tracking '''Research Projects''', the person who is applying to have their project approved could be added to the record with a [[Role|role]] named '''Candidate'''. Someone else could be assigned as '''Manager''', and perhaps 3 people would be assigned as '''Evaluators'''
* Any given contact could be an '''Evaluator''' for one Level 1 item and a '''Manager''' for a different Level 1 item.
* If the contact is both a '''Manager''' and '''Evaluator''' for the same Level 1 entity they can be assigned to the Level 1 twice: once as '''Manager''' and once as '''Evaluator'''.
This feature is further extended providing the ability to define [[Custom Field|custom fields]] used to describe the interaction between the person and their engagement in the [[Level 1 Entity]].
* For example, if the [[Level 1 Entity]] is a '''Research Project''' and you anticipate there being different '''Managers''' being responsible over time, you could create custom fields on the '''Manager''' [[role]] to track their respective start and end dates along with other information.
