Common Phone List
This is used to manage the group's shared phone list. This list is useful for including numbers frequently called by the group, such as a security company, company caterer, or a company day care center.

- Each line following the column headers should include the name and number of one contact.
- Enclose each value with a quotation mark.
- Once your file is set up, select Choose File.
- Locate the file on your computer and select IMPORT.
