Contact settings

Contact settings determines whether public users can edit or deactivate contact address during the registration, account management, or application page flow. The Contact settings consists of the two options below.

  • Enable contact address modification. Select the Enable contact address modification check box to enable the Edit menu item under the Actions menu at each active contact address. Public users can select the Edit item to edit a contact address in their accounts or applications.

    If you want to hide the Edit menu item, clear the Enable contact address modification check box.

  • Enable contact address deactivation. Select the Enable contact address deactivation check box to enable the Deactivate menu item under the Actions menu at each active contact address. Public users can select the Deactivate menu item to deactivate a contact address in their accounts or applications.

    If you want to hide the Deactivate menu item, clear the Enable contact address deactivation check box.

Public users can always add contact addresses in an application page flow regardless of the settings. The Enable contact address maintenance under Contact settings determines whether public users can add contact addresses in account management.

You can configure the standard choice value DEFAULT_CONTACT_ADDRESS_TYPE in ACA_CONFIGS. In the value description of DEFAULT_CONTACT_ADDRESS_TYPE, you can specify the default contact address type for all the Contact address sections in the Citizen Access website.
