Changing of contact or creation of it requires some steps to change few settings to allow it to be synchronized with the groupware system:

• If there is any change in the contact then for the private data there won’t be any special handling that has to be done.
• If there is any business related data that includes account name, work address and phone number, etc. then a request is SENT to the server to SYNCHRONIZE all the addresses and it links the changed account with the server. A SEARCH is made on the server to find out the exact match of the account on the server.
• Any LIST that is returned from the server gets evaluated and the exact matching account is used.
• If there is no exact matching then the possible addresses are added to the contact and a list of all the possible results will be sent to the client, from which it can select the combinations that is matching his account.
