Creating customer contacts in POSIM

Each customer in POSIM is capable of storing contact information for multiple billing and shipping addresses. Customer contacts all share the same Customer ID, and searching with contact information on an invoice will attach the shared customer card. Contact Profiles can also be used to record details about the customer, with space for information such as birthdays, pictures, and custom miscellaneous fields that can be renamed. The steps below outline the process of adding and managing customer contacts.

  1. Open the Contacts Tab on a Customer Card

    Open Sales -> Customers, then use the quick search or advanced search to find the customer you would like to add contact information for. Open the contacts tab by clicking on the contacts header near the middle-left of the customer card. If the customer has separate billing and shipping information, they will already have two contacts in this list.
