00:34

I want to create. From the list, I can click  the link to create a guest profile, company,  

00:40

00:54

I complete the mandatory fields and any  optional fields on the create profile  

00:58

screen. In this example, the name  field is intended to be a last name or  

01:02

family name. Now I enter a primary phone number.

01:10

01:13

or click add rows to add more  communication methods to the profile.  

01:18
