Table of Contents
Use the Add a Company Profile tool to add a profile for a company that exists in the Kavi® Members database but doesn't yet have a profile. You can set the Kavi Showcase profile to be updated automatically when the company record in Kavi Members is updated.
If you want to create a profile for a company that does not exist in the Kavi Members database, use Add an Independent Profile. If you want to create a profile for an Individual Member or Company Representative rather than a Member Company, use Add a User Profile. If you are a Showcase Super Admin and want to add profiles for multiple companies at once, use the Bulk Add Profiles tool, available in the Super Admin menu.
Back to topA list of all companies in the Kavi Members database for which profiles do not yet exist is displayed. Select the company for which you are creating this profile, then click Select.
This page displays whether the profile is linked to a Kavi Members account. Most profiles are linked so that the profile owner's information only has to be updated in one place. If this profile is not linked to the owner's account, the profile information has to be updated independently of the information in the account.
Add basic contact information for this profile and assign a category.
- Test Lab
This section is displayed if the Compliance feature is enabled.
- General Contact Information
Provide contact information for this profile, including an email address and mailing address. The profile name field is prefilled with the name of the company that owns this profile, but you may edit the profile name if you want it to display differently in Kavi Showcase. If the 'Automatically Update Contact Information' option is set to 'Yes', you won't be able to edit this information.
- Individual Contacts
-
Available contacts are displayed in the pulldown lists. Select a contact person and assign an appropriate Contact Type. With the exception of the default type 'Showcase User Editor', these are custom types managed through the Manage Profile Contact Types tool. These are semantic contact types (e.g., 'Marketing Contact', 'Sales Representative', etc.) that don't confer any access privileges.
The same user may be assigned as more than one type of contact for the same profile.
- Categories
Assign an appropriate category to this profile. The profile appears under this category heading when displayed. Depending on configuration, you may be able to assign multiple categories. All categories are custom to your organization, added by a 'Showcase Super Admin' through the Manage Profile Categories tool.

Select any scheduled email you want to send.

When you press the Send Selected Email button, the email you selected will go out immediately. Each scheduled email is listed by name. This list only includes scheduled email managed through this application.
By default, each email in the queue is set NOT to go out. If you want to send this email, click the 'Yes, send this email.' radio button. You may edit the message if desired. Edits made here are applied only to this specific message, and do not affect the underlying template. Selected email is sent out immediately.
