Maintain customer information and defaults
Customers are stored in eGrow Connect along with their contact information, notes, etc. Information you store for each customer will become the default to pre-fill sales orders and other documentation for that customer in the future.
- Navigate to
Sales, then
Customers.
- Double-click on a customer name from the left pane list, or click on
Add on the top taskbar to create a new customer.
- Use the tabs in the right pane to make changes and updates to customer defaults and general information.
- See descriptions of each tab below.
Customer Tab Descriptions
- General: Basic customer information and default billing and shipping contacts
- Additional Contacts: Names and contact information for the customer
- Other Info:
- Financial Information (credit limit and hold, references, etc.), Region, Customer Aging Summary and Quickbooks Customer Link (requires the Quickbooks Integration Add-on Module)
- Ship To Defaults: Various sales order parameters automatically assigned to new Ship To records for the customer
