Being new to Archicad and not from an english speaking country I found that quite hard to understand I don't seem to be able to create the right profile

1: make your form in the complex profile window. Best if you make the entire wall and parapet cap in the same profile.

2: Save the profile - indicate that you want to use it with a wall.

3: Draw the wall using the complex profile method - the fourth method in the control box on the right.....

And you should add a "signature" to your messages so we know your machinery and Archicad version to help you better.

To add to what Dwight said:
Create a Complex Profile marked with red in the attached image for the Wall.
Make sure the fills of the various skins will be the same as those of the adjoining Slab. Then they will heal in Section.
