# Contact Methods

The **Contact Methods** manages the contacts and contact methods used by phone.systems(TM). Specifically, the entries in
the **Contact Methods** serve to list the destinations (such as people and departments) to which incoming calls are
redirected, and also the methods by which these destinations are contacted.

It's important to note that **Contact Methods** can be pre-configured before adding objects like **Ring Groups**, which
rely on these contacts for call forwarding, to the workspace.
