The Customer Management Module is used to enter the details about customers. This information is used to prepare invoices and packing lists, as well as establish defaults to be used when new orders are created for a customer. A customer may have more than one bill-to address, if there are different divisions for the customer with different accounting departments. Sometimes customers may wish to have material drop-shipped to a third party and bill them. One customer bill-to address will be identified as the default address to be used in the creation of new orders. One customer ship-to address will be identified as the default address in new orders. Also, terms and conditions identified in these screens will be used as defaults for shipping, invoicing and accounting. The user has the opportunity to modify the default information at the time a new order is created.
