Customer
The Customer screen is the first section within the Customer Module. This screen stores all of your 'billing addresses' or head offices.
List View
Clicking on the Customer option under the Customer Module will open the list view, which is where you can see a list of all existing Customers within your database.
From the list view, you can either add a new record by clicking the 'Add New Customer' button on the top left of this screen, or double click an existing Customer record to load it. You can also use the search bars for each field to narrow down your results, or use the Advanced Search to select a field which isn't in the standard list.
Add New Customer
Once you are on the Customer Add screen, you will have the option to either add the Customer details manually, or use the Google Search bar to find the company details online (this may not work for all Customers as they may not have their details online).
As you type into the Google Search bar, it’ll return any relevant results.
Once you have entered all of the details, making sure to fill in at least the mandatory fields, click ‘Save Customer’ on the top right to save the record.
View/Edit Customer
Once you have saved or loaded your Customer record, you’ll be able to view and make changes to it if necessary.
To the right of these tabs there are control buttons which allow you to save, create a new record, print, delete or generate all Planned Maintenance Calls for this Customer.
Tabs
Above the Customer record, you'll see the tabs which can be used to view linked pages. These tabs have been detailed below:
Contacts
The Customer Contact tab stores any contacts which are linked to a Customer record. This allows for as many Contacts as necessary to be stored against the same record.
To add a new Contact, click the 'Add New Contact' button on the Contacts tab, and then fill in the pop-up window.
Once you have at least one Contact saved against the Customer, they'll appear in the Contacts list. You also have the option to set one as the 'Main Contact' which will show them on the main Customer screen.
Sites
The Site tab contains a list of Sites which belong to the Customer you're viewing. From this tab, you can also click the 'Add New Site' button to create a new Site belonging to this Customer.
