Setting up your Individuals
It is highly recommended that you search in Clients, Contacts for the person before adding an individual into Connectworks. The following article will guide you through the process of upgrading a contact to an individual.
With clients that are already in Contacts, these can be upgraded to an individual and then linked to the profile in APS.
Navigate to your firm's Clients tab.
In Clients, Individuals select the "I would like to..." menu at the top right of the page and then "Add a Person".
1. Search or Create
Import from another system
Here you can search the registry of APS by typing in the person's name.
When the name of the person appears in the list, click the ‘Select’ button.
