Modifying Customers

Best Practice: While discussing with customers, fill out as many fields as possible in order to obtain as precise a customer profile as possible.

In this topic, we will discuss the modifications that you can apply a customer account:

modify the customer's main information under the account tab
personalize the customer's account by adding preferences in the Custom Attributes tab
add, modify or delete an address from the customer's address book
add, modify or delete an organization from the customer's account
set the customer's store preferences
view and copy existing orders
view the customer's active carts
view and delete saved payment information

Modifying the customer's Account

If there was a mistake in the customer's first or last name, or a modification to their email address or phone number is required, use the Account tab to make those modifications.

You can modify customer details such as the name in the order, email address, contact information and preferred language.

The new version of the Order Management application now supports opening multiple customer accounts simultaneously. They will appear as tabs at the top of the screen.

1. In the Customers tab, click the customer that you want to edit.

Tip: To locate a customer rapidly, use the date and time filter options located at the top of the screen or use the search field using their last name, phone or email.
