Find a customer
Look a customer up by name, phone or email at the till while selling, or in the Customers list. At the till you can add a new one on the spot.
Steps
At the till
- Step 1
On New Sale, type a name, phone or email in the Customer box.
- Step 2
Tap the right person in the results to link them to the sale.
- Unlink lets them go again.
- Step 3
Nobody found? Fill in Full name, Phone number and Email under the box to add them.
- If the email is already on file, tap Use this record instead of creating a second customer.
- Step 4
Finish the sale as usual: the new customer's file is created with it.
In the Customers list
- Step 5
Open BACKOFFICE › Customers.
- Step 6
Type in Search name, email, or phone...; it matches the same three fields.
- Step 7
Narrow the list with the date buttons, All regions, Added at location, Added by or My customers.
- Step 8
Tap a name to open the customer's file (The customer file).
What happens next
- A linked customer's sale goes on their file: it shows under Invoices and earns points when the shop uses them.
- When the customer has store credit, it appears under Payment methods as soon as they are linked (Store credit).
- A walk-in sale stays without a customer. To add one afterwards, edit the invoice (Edit an invoice).
Good to know
- A name is found without its accents or capitals, at the till and in the list: “ibanez” finds Ibáñez. A phone number or an email matches as it was saved: a number stored with spaces will not match when typed without them.
- Missing email shows the files without an email, so you can complete them before their next sale.
- Roles allowed to see money also see Net spend: each customer's sales less their refunds, the Net on their file. The Customers' spend tile counts sales only, so with refunds the rows add up to less.
