Important Tip – Checking for Duplicate Names

When entering a new customer, enter the name only, then immediately save to see if a duplicate exists (just click Menu > Save).  If the save is successful, enter the remaining info.

  • If the save is not successful, compare the new name, contact, phone number, address, and any other relevant data to confirm it is not a duplicate of the existing entry.
  • If it is truly is a new customer, consider adding the state abbreviation to the end of the Customer Name field.
  • Alternatively, consider adding extra spaces along with other characters to the end of Customer Name field to make it unique.  Then you will be able to save the entry.
