Overview

Contact Detail is the selected-client record for one prospect. Review identity, company, status, campaign, activity, meeting, Discovery, recording, and email-quality information. The Email badge uses current validation evidence. Employee users can manage supported outreach statuses and meeting details. Call can open an exact same-day redial when the signed-in user already placed a provider-backed outbound call to this contact today in the active campaign. That path bypasses only the ordinary recycle and same-day repeat rules, while status, archive, phone, blocklist, and per-contact dial limits still apply. Durable booking history separately preserves eligible meeting follow-up calls after later status changes. Client members see status as read-only unless their exact user and selected client have an active meeting-outcome grant. The Notes section distinguishes a temporary load failure from an empty history and provides Retry without hiding the note composer. Imported call evidence with no saved source result is labeled Legacy (no disposition) instead of being presented as a real no-answer or unknown outcome.

How to use this page

  1. Open and review a contact

    Open a contact from Contacts. Review identity, company, status, campaign membership, outreach statistics, activity, any existing meeting, recording links, and the Email quality badge.

  2. Read the Email quality badge

    Check the badge beside Email. A current validator result can show Valid, Catch-all, Role address, Unknown, Invalid, Disposable, or Spam trap. Missing, expired, or unrecognized validation shows Unverified. Undeliverable means delivery failed and future sends are blocked. Hover the badge for the explanation and, when available, the last checked date.

  3. Review or edit Discovery

    In Contact Information, select Discovery to edit the contact's sales discovery text. Save the field when finished. Use the separate Notes area for the ongoing notes thread.

  4. Load, retry, and save Notes

    Open Notes for the ongoing contact thread. Loading notes appears while SalesHive reads the history. If the read fails, the section says Could not load notes. Try again and shows Retry instead of incorrectly showing an empty history. Select Retry to read the thread again. A note save failure remains a separate message beneath the composer.

  5. Set the next Asked for Info date

    When the contact status is Asked for Info and the field is editable for your role, select Next Follow-Up in Contact Information and choose the intended calendar day. Contact Detail displays and saves that exact day, including older date-only values, and the same date appears in Follow-ups, Inbox, SDR Hub, and exports.

  6. Use the status control for your access

    Employees can use the header Status menu for supported non-booking status changes. A client member normally sees a read-only status. If that exact user has an active meeting-outcome grant and the contact is currently Meeting Set, the header instead shows Update outcome with Prospect Cancelled, Meeting Held, Win, Meeting Held, Unqualified, Reschedule, and Client Handled. After an outcome is saved, the status becomes read-only.

  7. Start a complete Meeting Set booking

    Employees can choose Log a meeting in the Meeting section when the contact is not already Meeting Set. Enter the meeting date and time plus an owner with an email address. Those details save together as one booking. Choose Cancel to discard the local draft.

  8. Call or email the contact

    Use Call when an eligible campaign or explicit follow-up path is available. If you already placed a provider-backed outbound call to this contact today in the active campaign, Call opens an exact Re-dial Today queue for this contact. SalesHive verifies that the selected contact belongs to your own called-today set before opening the queue. The path bypasses the ordinary recycle and same-day repeat rules only; status, archive, phone, blocklist, and per-contact dial limits still apply. Saved booking history separately keeps eligible meeting follow-up calls available after later status changes. Use Email when the contact has an address and your role has an available sender.

  9. Review activity and recordings

    Use Activity filters and source-record links for calls and emails. Imported old-platform calls remain visible as history. A source record with no saved result is labeled Legacy (no disposition), while an unmatched legacy result is labeled Legacy (other); neither is treated as a current CRM dial outcome. Employee views can show a safely matched Recorded meeting entry. Open recording uses the saved meeting recording or the matched booking-call recording link when available.

What the buttons do

Email quality badge
Shows the current evidence-based email result. Undeliverable blocks future sends, while Unverified means there is no current recognized validation result.
Discovery
Edits dedicated sales discovery text for this contact.
Status
Lets employees change supported outreach statuses. It cannot create a new incomplete Meeting Set.
Update outcome
For an exactly granted client member, records one allowed outcome while the booked contact is still Meeting Set.
Log a meeting
For employees, opens a local booking draft that requires a date, time, and email-capable owner.
Call
Opens the contact dialer for an eligible campaign or explicit follow-up path. A provider-backed outbound call placed by the signed-in user today can open an exact Re-dial Today queue, while saved booking history preserves eligible meeting follow-up paths.
Email
Opens a pre-addressed compose window when a sender is available.
Open recording
Opens a saved meeting recording or a safely matched Recorded meeting entry in Activity.
Next Follow-Up
Edits the contact next step. Asked for Info contacts keep the exact selected calendar day across follow-up views.
Retry
Reads the contact notes thread again after a temporary load failure.

Common questions

No known delivery failure is not proof that an address is valid. SalesHive shows Unverified when the validator result is missing, expired, or unrecognized. Campaign sending rechecks the address under the configured validation policy.
The exact failed recipient is marked Undeliverable, future sends are blocked, and pending cadence steps for the matching contact are cancelled. A later hard bounce overrides an older valid result.
No. Asked for Info uses a date-only next step, so the selected calendar day stays the same across Contact Detail and other follow-up views. Timed workflows keep their normal timezone handling.
Yes, when the contact still has saved booking history plus an eligible phone and campaign path. SalesHive uses the booking date as durable meeting follow-up evidence, so a later status change does not strand the selected callback.
Client status is read-only by default. The narrow client control appears only for an exact active user and client grant while the contact is currently Meeting Set. It does not grant access to edit other contact or meeting fields.
Prospect Cancelled, Meeting Held, Win, Meeting Held, Unqualified, Reschedule, or Client Handled. The control becomes read-only after one of those outcomes is saved.
Discovery is a dedicated editable contact field for sales findings. Notes remains the separate contact notes thread.
A new booking requires a meeting date, time, and email-capable owner. Employees should use Log a meeting so those details are captured before the status changes.
Employee views can show a ready CRM recording when one unique booked Platform contact and its meeting history match safely. Client views do not receive cross-client recording matches.
SalesHive found a provider-backed outbound call that you placed to this contact today in the active campaign. Contact Detail opens an exact Re-dial Today queue for that contact. It does not reopen a general campaign queue or bypass status, archive, phone, blocklist, or per-contact dial limits.
No. SalesHive shows a separate load error and Retry action because an unavailable notes request is not proof that the history is empty.
The call came from the old platform, but its source record did not include a call result. SalesHive keeps the historical activity and labels the missing evidence honestly instead of guessing No Answer or Unknown. It does not count as a CRM dial or connection.
