Editing an Account Contact
There are several ways to view an existing contact from the account manager screen.  You can select the Contact folder in the left hand pane of the screen which will load up the contact tab in the bottom frame of the screen then select the contact you require and click the "UPDATE" button (See Creating and Updating an Account Contact).

You may also double click on the contact you wish to edit from the "Contact" box or select the contact and click the button with the folder icon to the top right of the "Contact" box.  Both methods will launch the contact maintenance screen with the contact details loaded.  From here you may edit the details and save your changes.

By double clicking the Account Link in the browse or selecting the account link and clicking select will load this account into the current account manager screen.

 
Creating an Account Contact
Apart from the way to create an account contact outlined in Creating and Updating an Account Contact you may launch a blank contact maintenance screen to enter the details of a new contact by clicking on the button with the "+" sign to the right of the "Contact" box.  Click the link above to view instructions on entering contact details.
 
Copying an Account Contact
Sometimes you may wish to create a new contact with a different name but maybe staying at the same address as a contact you already have on the account.  Ascent saves you the hassle of having to retype the address details etc.  By clicking on the button with the double folder icon to the right of the "Contact" box will launch a contact maintenance screen with only the address details of the contact you had chosen to copy.  This will allow you to add the remaining details you require and save as a new contact on the account.
