Customer Entry/Edit is used for the setup and management of Customers that receive material from the Warehouse.



Material cannot be shipped out without a Customer specified in the order/shipment. By defining Customers in this database, it allows the user to select a valid Customer at the time of Order and Shipping entry.



Customer Code, Customer Name and Customer B/T# are required fields.


Customer Bill-To Acct# Usage

Customer B/T# is also called the Customer Bill-To Account#. In most instances, the Customer Code and the Customer B/T# will be the same. However, the SphereWMS system can associate Ship-to Account Codes to alternate Bill-To Account Codes.


An example of a Ship-to/Bill-to relationship is a large retailer that has several hundred stores around the country. The retailer's Headquarters would first be setup in the Customer Master referring to itself as its own Bill-To#. Then, each of its Stores would be set up as well. Each Store would then reference the Retailer Headquarters' Account Code as its Bill-To# to indicate where Invoices, for example, are to be directed.
