Profile Basics
A profile is a record. Adding a person, organization, business, or church means you give them a profile.
Any congregant, organization, business, or church that you have a connection with will likely have a profile. That means you can track data connected with them such as contact information. But having a profile doesn't necessarily mean they can sign in. That requires an account, which is covered in another topic.
Where do the profile fields come from?
Profile pages include fields created:
- by Realm when you ran the automatic or assisted setup process
- On the Profile Fields tab. You can decide whether certain fields are visible when adding profiles and whether they are visible to congregants.
Note:
Families vs. Individuals
A family can have one individual or be made up of many members. When you add an individual, a family is automatically created.
