    Hello @braveheart1

    The Project Instructions include this point:

    • If a record does not include a name for the primary person, you should still index the record, marking the primary name fields blank and indexing other names, such as names of the parents, along with any other fields that are present on the record.

    So I would mark the name BLANK.


    Regards
