To create an app from CRM Analytics for Communications-Business app template, follow these steps:

- In CRM Analytics Studio, click **Create** in the upper right corner
- Select **App**, then **Create App from Template** and open the template picker.
- Locate the **CRM Analytics for Communications-Business app** tile, select it, and click **Continue**.
- Review the app preview page, and click **Continue** to open the configuration wizard.
- If you’re offered a choice between basing your app on an existing app or creating a one, select **Create a brand new app** and click **Continue**. The CRM Analytics for Communications-Business app runs a compatibility check against your org to be sure it includes the data to successfully create the app’s datasets and dashboards. If it doesn’t, follow the instructions in the error message to add the required data and start the app creation process again.
- When the org compatibility check succeeds, click **Looks good, next**.
- Name your app, and click **Create**.
