Notes

  1. Try to create a contact from within the appropriate organization account.
  2. There is an account named "unknown" to enter contacts for whom we do not know the account information
    1. This is referred to as a 'holding account'
  3. Try to enter as much information as you know about the contact.
  4. Don't forget to make a choice of the contact's "point of entry"

Choose one of two ways to create a community team

A community team, similar to a contact, can be created from multiple locations:
  1. Create a community team from within a Community account
    1. From the Community Teams related list beneath the Community account, click the "New Community Team" button
    2. Using this list and button will fill the community name on the community detail information.

  2. Create a community team from the Community Teams tab
    1. From the list of recent Community Teams, click the "New" button.
    2. Using this list and button you will need to lookup the related community name on detail information.

  1. Enter a name for the Community Team.  
    1. This name may be provided by the team members or may be something meaningful to the Action Center staff.
  2. Lookup or verify the name of the related community
  3. Save the record
  4. After saving the record, members will need to be added separately.

Select contacts to be Team Members

Like many things in Salesforce there is more than one way to add members to a community team.

[screenshots of the "community team members" related list on the Contact and Community Team records]
  1. Open the record for the community team and in the Community Team Member related list, click the "New Community Team Member" button
  2. Open a record for a contact and in the Community Team Members related list, click that "New Community Team Member" button

Notes

The community team member is a junction record which allows a community team to have multiple contacts, and a contact to be a member of multiple community teams.
