MAINTAINING CONTACT INFORMATION OF A DATA RECORD IN A CONTACT DATABASE

Abstract:

Methods and computing devices implementing the methods maintain an information interface for contact information that includes temporal information related to when information elements within a contact record were last updated. The computing device may receive contact information for a field of a data record in a contact database and determine whether the contact information differs from previously stored contact information. In response to determining that the contact information differs from the previously stored contact information, the computing device may store the contact information and a time stamp in the data record. The time stamp may indicate when the contact information is stored.
