Customer Classes

Form ID: (AR201000)

On this form, you can create customer classes, which are groups of customers with similar properties. These classes make it easier to create customer accounts on the Customers (AR303000) form: Once you select a class for a customer you are entering, the system inserts the settings you've defined for the class, such as default accounts and subaccounts, into the corresponding form elements. (You can override these values, if needed.)

To ease the creation of customer classes, specify an existing customer class as the default one on the Accounts Receivable Preferences (AR101000) form. After you do this, when you create a new customer class, its elements will be populated with values from the default customer class. (You can overwrite any of these values.) For more information about customer classes, see Customers: Customer Class Settings.

Form Toolbar

The form toolbar includes standard and form-specific buttons and commands. For the list of standard buttons, see Form Toolbar and More Menu. The form-specific commands are listed in the following table.
