To enter a new corporation into your private library, click on Contact Library - New Library Entry in the always available menu bar at the top.

Type - The purpose of the type is to limit the library lookup lists. For example, when looking up a lawyer or notary, the system displays only entries that have a Type of Law Firm/Notary Office. Select the type of company that you are creating from the drop down. If you are entering a client select Other Corporation.
