Customers

Record customers who buy on credit, or whose transactions and balance you want to track — instead of treating them as a cash customer every time.

Go to Customers & Suppliers → Customers and click Create:

Create customer

Fields

  • Name: (required).
  • Email: optional; must be unique within the same company if provided.

When editing an existing customer, Account Balance and loyalty points fields also appear (read-only), along with the accounting account automatically linked to the customer.

From the customer's edit/view page, tabs are available showing:

  • The customer's sale invoices.
  • Their sales returns.
  • Their payments (see Customer Payments).

Notes

  • For a detailed statement of balance movements, see Customer Balance Statement.
  • When a customer is selected on a sale invoice or the POS, their type's price tier is automatically applied to every item.
