Exercise 1 - Customize the Display for Person Records LLM

Task: Organize the layout for a person record and set the default layout.

Scenario: To make sure that your school’s prospects and applicants receive communications from your office, it’s important to keep everyone’s email addresses up to date.

To help you work more efficiently, move the Contact Information section on the person record for a person in the Prospect stage. Then save the layout as the default for all your person records.
