Hi, reading through the CIM XML dev guide, one of the first steps it lists is running createCustomerProfileRequest to create an empty profile on Authorize.net.
I am just a little torn and confused as to when the best time to run this would be...
On our site I'd assume maybe half of registered users would end up completing orders.
- 1) Do I create the profile as soon as the user registers on my site, and have a bunch of unused empty profiles on Authorize?
or
- 2) Do I wait until checkout to create the profile, and deal with not being able to reference a customer's profile ID until they have made a purchase?
Thanks!

Either solution would work, but I think the second scenario would probably be more manageable for you. However, it is really just a matter of personal preference.
