So that you do not always have to define the contact type (e.g. company, department, etc.) when creating a contact person, you can define a fixed contact type for your contact person under the settings (You can find out how to create contact types in general here).

As soon as you select a new contact person, the contact type that is stored as the contact person for the main contact is stored for this.

For example: You want contact persons of a company to always be departments. Make this setting first Settings – Contacts – Contact Types .
