A 'Customer' in Pilot ERP is anyone to which your company provides goods or services.

 

Customers are presented in a list format under the Sales | Customers screen.  The list contains the customer name and additional information about the customer and can be printed or saved to a spreadsheet.

 

 

To create a new Customer:

 

1.Go to the Customer screen under the Sales menu.

 

2.Click 'New Customer' at the top left of the Customer screen.

 

3.Pilot will automatically provide you with the next sequential customer number.  This is used to identify the unique customer.  You can continue on or change the customer number/code to suit your naming method.

 

4.In the Name field, enter the name of the Company or individual.  This name will appear on all orders, shipments, invoices and reports for that customer.

 

5.Complete by entering the customers main billing address and contact information.  If the customer has a shipping address different from the billing address, you can enter it into the Ship To tab on the customer card.

 

6.Enter the Customers Tax Code(s), preferred shipment methods and payment terms on the Terms/Sales tab.
