I have a test server and a install on my laptop to play around with. They are both 7.3.3 (B570) Will not create a new profile. I give it a new name, select the datasource I am using for transaction groups, leave the rest at defaults. It says it creates it, but if you go into the database the tables are not there. I tried changing the names of the tables and that did not help. I thought I done this not to long ago and it worked… I could be wrong. Am I missing a step here? ---

Just an FYI for everyone. Its a lazy insert for the tables, so until you go to use them they are not there. I just did not think to try and use something that was not there… LOL ---

Yeah, this trips up everyone pretty much. We should find some way to create the tables upon profile creation.
