Assignment Roles

The Assignment Roles setting allows System Administrators to delimit the roles with which contacts can be associated with an organization. Only those roles selected in Assignment Roles will be able to be selected from the Role dropdown when associating a contact.

Association Role

If you select a role in the Association Role setting, whenever you change a contact's company, the contact will be associated with the previous company with the Association Role. This is useful if you have a role called "Previous Affiliations," and want to track the organizations with which a contact has been previously affiliated.
