Adding a new Contact

Users with an Admin role can create further contacts (employees within their company/practice). It is possible to add Contacts with a portal login for employees which should also have access to the portal and be able to create Support Cases etc.

Alternatively, you can add a Contact without setting up a portal login.

1. In the CGM PORTAL, go to menu "MYORG" via the navigation bar on the left side.

2. On the "Contacts" tab, click on button "Add New Contact".
