Browsing clients

You can search clients by name with the help of Starts with and Contains filters.

Select contains option and enter any part of client's name being searched.

Click any client in the list to view profile of this client to the right.
Double-click any client in the list to edit their name, client code and change client currency.
Once a new client has been added, their data can be edited in this client's profile.
You can create a new client record based on data (profile, marketing, contact or pricing) of one of the existing clients by cloning this client. To do so, select a client to clone, and click Clone button. For more information please refer to Cloning a Client topic.

Clients are listed in the form of table. Although by default it contains single column (Name), you can add your custom fields to view by right-clicking the client list and then clicking Customize Columns in the context menu.

_bm3 Note: Due to filter operation (like local custom filter and global date filter) you may not be able to see all the clients in the database. Summary at the bottom of clients list displays if all the clients are shown. Please refer to Local Custom Filter topic for more details on filters and access restrictions.
