Manage customers

Updated

Customers lists the people and businesses you sell coins to. You need the View invoices or Manage memos permission to see it.

Where customers come from

  • You add a customer with Add customer.
  • A sale adds a new buyer as a customer. On New invoice or Sell, type a name and choose New customer with that name.
  • An eBay or Walmart order adds the buyer as a customer. CoinManagerPro matches the buyer by email, then by marketplace user name.

CoinManagerPro does not add a customer twice. For a new buyer on an invoice or a sale, it looks for a saved customer:

  1. A customer with the same email. Case does not matter.
  2. If no email matches, the one customer with the same name. A customer with a different email does not match.

When it finds a customer, the sale goes on that customer. It also saves the email and the phone if the customer has none. When it finds no customer, or two with the same name, it adds a new customer.

Add a customer

  1. Go to Customers.
  2. Click Add customer.
  3. Enter the Name and the Email. The Phone and the Company are optional.
  4. Click Add customer.

The customer page opens.

The customer list

Each row shows:

  • Purchases: the number of the customer's invoices.
  • Lifetime value: the total of those invoices.
  • Last purchase: the date of the newest one.
  • Status: Active, Inactive or Pending.

An invoice counts when it is not a draft, void or cancelled. Its total already has returns taken off.

Search by name, email, phone or company. Sort by Newest, Oldest, Highest value, Most purchases or Last purchase. Filter by status. The top of the page shows the number of customers and the Average lifetime value.
