Learn how to manage contacts in Sole Tank. Add, edit, and organise clients so quotes and invoices stay accurate, records are tidy, and financial info is easy to track.

Updated over a week ago

Every quote you send and every invoice you raise starts with a contact. If your contacts are accurate and up to date, everything else in Sole Tank just works.

Keeping your client list organised means fewer mistakes, faster quoting, and cleaner records.

In Sole Tank → Business → Contacts, you can:

  • Add new clients

  • Edit existing details

  • Upload a client photo

  • Add private client notes

  • View invoice activity at a glance

  • Archive old clients (without breaking your records)

How to add or edit a Contact

Everything happens in the same place — no jumping between screens.

  1. In Sole Tank, navigate to the Business tab

  2. Click Contacts

  3. Either:

    • Select Add Contact to create a new client, or

    • Click the pencil icon to edit an existing contact to update their details

  4. Enter or edit the client information

  5. (Optional) Add a photo and internal notes

  6. Click Save

That’s it. Your contact is ready to use in quotes and invoices, and any updates you make will apply to future documents.

What you can see inside a Contact

Each contact gives you a quick financial snapshot:

  • Total invoices raised

  • Total paid

  • Any outstanding amount

You can also expand the section to see:

  • Invoice history

  • Business details

  • Private notes

It’s your mini client dashboard.

FAQS

Q: Can I add client notes?

A: Yes. Notes are internal and only visible to you. Perfect for pricing agreements, reminders or “slow payer” warnings.

Q: Can I upload a client photo?

A: Yes, you can add one when creating or editing the contact.

Q: Can a contact have more than one email?

A: Not currently. Each contact can only have one email address. Choose the primary one your client wants invoices sent to.

Q: Can I delete a contact?

A: You can delete a contact only if there are no related quotes or invoices. If records exist, deletion is disabled to protect your reporting.

Q: What should I do instead of deleting?

A: Use Archive. Archiving removes the contact from your active list, keeps all financial history intact and lets you restore them anytime. To view archived clients, toggle off “Hide archived clients”.

💡Pro Tip
