Welcome to the customer screen. First of all, lets look at editing some basic details about your customer.

In the section shown below you can edit a lot of the information you added about a customer when they were created by clicking the "Edit" button at the side of each sub-section. This is especially useful if mistakes were made or the customers details have changed over time.

1. The first section allows you to edit your customers name as well as any pseudonym they might trade under.

2. Here you can select the sales channel the customer is assigned to.

3. This is where you edit company details, mostly financial. Along with what is shown below, you can flag the customer as EU VAT exempt and put their account on hold if needed. You can also set an account reference which will be used if transactions are automatically fed into supported accounts packages.

4. Select the customers payment terms here. Click the link for a more detailed guide on this area of the customer screen.

6. Loyalty points are for use with the Cloud Commerce Pro EPOS till system.

Click "Settings" to configure the details of the loyalty points. "Balance" allows you to change the overall balance of the loyalty points for the customer. "Statement" will take you to the Customer Accounts screen as detailed above.

4. Personal Details

On the right of the customer screen you can set more basic information. Like in the previous section, click "Edit" to make a change.

1. Set a username and password for your customer. This is especially useful for trade customers.

2. Contact information can be added here, such as the customers address, email address, various telephone numbers and fax numbers. You can also add an EORI (Economic Operators Registration and Identification number) for the customer if required.

You can add as many addresses as required here. Once you add more than five, they will show on a second page and a search box will also be added to allow you to find addresses more easily.

3. Here you can add details about the various contacts for the customer or company. For example, the customer might have different members of staff that you need to contact in different situations. Having all of their details on file makes reaching the right person quick and easy.
