Add a new customer

eGrow Connect stores customer data including their contact information, addresses, notes, credit defaults, documents, an activity log, etc. Information you store for each customer will become the default to pre-fill sales orders and other documentation for that customer in the future.

Tip: eGrow Connect allows a customer to include multiple “Ship to” addresses which can each have unique terms, pricing groups, sales reps and more. This is most commonly used when selling to a buying collective.

  2. Click Add New icon Add.
  3. Fill out the New Customer window, then click Add.
  4. Click through the tabs of the new customer to update all the eGrow Connect information for that customer.
