Contact First Name Ports

Contact First Name Ports

Input and output ports that contain the first name of any contact in the address record.
Use a Contact First Name port with a Contact Last Name port. Optionally, use a Contact Middle Name port.
The contact data ports are related by port number. For example, Contact Name 1 contains all data in the Contact First Name 1, Contact Last Name 1, and Contact Middle Name 1 ports.
The Contact Complete port also contains contact first name data.

Contact First Name Usage

Select a Contact First Name input port when an input address contains the first name of a contact.
Select a Contact First Name output port to write the first name of a contact in a single port.
Consider the following guidelines when you use Contact First Name ports:
  • There are three Contact First Name ports. If an address record contains more than one contact, select additional Contact First Name ports.
  • For each contact in an address, select the Contact Name input port or select one or more of the Contact First Name, Contact Last Name, and Contact Middle Name input ports. If you select a Contact First Name port, do not select the corresponding Contact Complete port.
  • You can select all contact data ports as outputs.
