If security is configured (under the New Customer security setting – refer to the SalesPad Security Settings article for more information), the Customer ID can be automatically assigned and certain options can be set by default.


Note
: When a class is initially set on a customer card, the associated class defaults will be set in GP. Future changes made to a customer class in SalesPad will NOT override the existing customer class settings in GP.

The customer’s contact information will be visible in the Contact Addresses tab of the customer card:

To add additional contacts on the same Customer Card, click New on the Contact Addresses tab.

Note: SalesPad can auto-create the customer ID and customer number when a new customer is created (Dynamics GP cannot auto-assign new customer numbers). To enable this, set the sub-setting Auto Assign Customer ID to True. The auto number value will be pulled from User Defined 2 in the Dynamics GP Company Card:

Security

Customer Search > Can Create Customers - Allows a user to create a new customer. Defaults to 'False'.
