Agency contacts can be assigned to any number of contracts or locations, for example, within a fire or police department.- Local
Local contacts are specific to one location. If you are using Signature Customer Portal, this is where you set up your customers to use the portal. You can create a local contact from this window; however, keep in mind that you cannot attach a local contact to a location or maintenance contract from the Contact Setup window.
