Overview

This article explains how to use editing a customer in Work Planner, including the main fields that shape how the customers record behaves once it is saved.

When to use this

How it fits into the flow

Main actions

  • Work through the form from top to bottom and check the values that affect downstream scheduling, pricing, or communication.
  • Review any required fields before saving so the record is created or updated cleanly.
  • Use the surrounding actions to return to the list or continue the workflow once the form is saved.
  • Common on-screen actions include Find Address, Make primary, Remove, Add another email.

Important fields

  • Reference: Look for input such as “Customer reference”.
  • Title: Look for input such as “Mr, Mrs, etc.”.
