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.

  1. Navigate to sales section icon Sales, then customers icon Customers.
  2. Double-click on a customer name from the left pane list, or click on Add New icon Add on the top taskbar to create a new customer.
  3. Use the tabs in the right pane to make changes and updates to customer defaults and general information.
  4. See descriptions of each tab below.
