                     HOW TO CREATE CUSTOMER RECORDS

STEP :1
First of all you will open your company in Peachtree:

                     

STEP :2
Now you click on “maintain” from above toolbar, and after opening it the below window will open in front of you from which you select the first option “customers/prospects”
                                                                     


STEP :3
After opening ‘customers/prospect” you will see the below window in which you can create your customers account easily by filling all the information which is required in this page.

                              

STEP :4
Here you can see the first column is of “customer ID” as we know that every customer has its unique id which is always different from another, and the same thing we done in making chart of account’s ID in which every account has its own ID, same case is here now. You will first enter the ID of your customer like we gave 200 as its ID,and then the next option is of “NAME” in which you enter the name of the organization whom you are dealing with, suppose its ABC COMPANY.
Now you have six options ahead to fill, the first one is of “GENRAL” in which the first contact in which you write the contact of that organization means that you have to enter the name of the person whom you are dealing in ABC COMPANY, it can be the person of any field related to that organization or company. The next you have “address” of that company, the “city”, then “customer type” means which type of that customer is, then “telephone” and so on. After filling all portions you will move forward and click on the second requirement which is “SALES DEFAULTS”
                          

STEP :5
Now if you have to make the invoice of your customer, you will click on the “beginning balance” which is shown below in blue area.
              

STEP :6
After clicking on “beginning balance” the below page will open in which you first write the invoice number of your customer, then date, purchase order number and the amount at which you contract with your customer.


     

STEP :7
The date which you will write in the above window to make your customer invoice, that date must be between the period which is shown in the below window with the blue shaded area. This is the period of your company which is from 1st February 2012 to 29the February 2012:

             
                       
STEP :8
After clicking on “Sales defaults” you have to enter the “GL sales account” which is the sales revenue account, in this blank area the account which you enter must be exist in your chart of accounts with the name of revenue, if this account does not exists in your chart of accounts which you made previously then this blank area starts blinking. So you have to make sure that you have already sales revenue account under which you are dealing with your customers. After complete this requirement you go ahead to “Terms and credit”

                         

STEP :9
Now you have “terms and credit” in this requirement you have to fill all the things under which you made credit sales, like the date at which you are going to recover your payment, the discount period, the days in which your customer can avail discount, the limit of your credit, and so on. After this you will move forward and click on the next requirement which is of “Payment defaults”
                           
STEP :10
Here you enter all the data regarding the payments of the customer like the name of the person, address, city, country, credit card number and so on. Then you click on the next requirement which is “Custom fields”
