Area	Type	Improvement
Media		New data card/media wizard A new wizard has been added to make it easier to add and edit data cards.  Also, media types now drive the data card/media format and a new format has been added to better reflect digital advertising programs. In addition, these specific changes have been made: Removed Edit button at the top of the data card view.  The Edit buttons next to each section takes you to the corresponding panel in the wizard. Removed Standard Categorization as a manager function, as it will now be performed by NextMark Auditors.

Reordered wizard screens and restructured data to flow better with data entry processes. Updated addressing to behave in the same manner as selects. Updated contacts to make it easier to manage and allow separation from member profile.
