Info

Note: Only vendor, customer or shipping cardfiles can be added using Quick Add CardFile. Upon opening the form, Customer is selected but any combination can be chosen.

2.Choose whether the new cardfile is a company or individual.

The Company/Individual radio buttons determine the format of the auto-generated card code. For example, if the company is Guy Rich, the card code would be GUY.RICH. If it is an individual, the card code would be RICH.GUY. However, any card code can be entered here.

3.Choose whether the new cardfile is a customer, prospect, vendor (to be invoiced) or ship (ship means is not invoiced).

4.Tab to the Name field, and enter the cardfile name. In the example below the name is Guy Rich.

Info

Since Quick Add CardFile records only the bare minimum needed to set up a cardfile, as soon as practicable, edit that cardfile and add any additional information, such as other contacts, phone numbers, email addresses, etc.
