Creating Customer Types

You use Customer Type records to categorize customers based on the type of business they do (e.g., Wholesale, Retail, Non-profit). The information in this topic explains how to create Customer Type records. Once you create your customer types, you can then assign a customer type to each customer on the Account tab of the Customer record. You can use the customer type to view your e-automate sales activity by customer type.
