Things to know

  • Multiple Location Records can be associated with the same Customer Record, but a Location Record can only be associated with one Customer Record. This is because only one party is financially responsible for a service location.

  • The billing address on a Customer Record may be the same as the address for the Location Record if the customer is the homeowner. However, a property management company may have dozens of service locations.

  • You can mark a customer as Do Not Service to notify your Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) that they shouldn't book jobs for that customer.

  • Forms that have been assigned to a Customer or Location Record in Settings can be found in the Forms section of the record. For more, see Use forms.

Create Customer and Location Records

The best time to create or edit Customer and Location Records is during Call Booking. This is because while you’re on the phone with the customer, you can ensure you’re getting accurate and up-to-date information.

When you create a new Customer Record, a new Location Record is also created and attached to the Customer Record. If the customer has more than one service location, you can add another service location to their existing Customer Record.

For more on how to create Customer and Location Records, see Add a new customer and Add a new service location.
