Customers (in the Back Office)

With our system, you own each and every one of your customer relationships. Maintaining good customer records lets you track your customers’ sales, which helps improve customer service and allows you to take advantage of our system’s integrated email marketing features.
View Customers List
Select CUSTOMERS > CUSTOMERS to view a list of all of your customers. Each customer record stores the customer’s contact information, including their email address and phone number. You can also record detailed notes, such as special shipping instructions, a birthday, or another important date reminder. You can also assign customers to specific categories, allowing you to group customers for tracking and reporting.

NOTE: If the customer's email address is highlighted in red, that means that we have detected that it is an invalid email address. The date that the system last attempted to send an email to that email address can be found in the Invalid Date column.  Look at the email address to see if it's missing the required format, such as janedoe@email.com.

Edit and Remove Customers
Removing a customer is a "soft delete". This means that although the customer is removed from your view, all the data and activity associated with that customer is still shown in reports, transactions, etc.

If you want to edit or remove a customer from your customer database:
  1. Select CUSTOMERS > CUSTOMERS.

  3. Do one of the following:
    • Make any necessary changes to an existing customer's information.  Then, click Save Changes when you are done.

    • If you want to remove the customer (perhaps, if you have duplicates), click Remove Customer and confirm removing the customer. If the selected customer has any sales activity, the system will let you know, so that you can determine if you still want to remove the customer.

    • If you have existing customers in your system: Export you customer list and any new customers. You can also edit existing data to update customers in your system. Be careful that you do not erase any fields, data or information that should not be changed or deleted form the original customer list because once the new list is imported, the edits will override the existing data.

  7. When the import is finished, the Import Details screen displays the results of the import, including the number of customers that were successfully imported and the number of customers that could not be imported. Review the customer records that were not imported, so you can make the necessary corrections to your customer data file and import them again..
