How to edit, merge, or archive a customer
Update customer information, merge duplicate customer profiles, or archive customers who are no longer active.
Edit a customer
You can update a customer's information at any time.
- In the left-hand navigation bar, click Customers.
- Find the customer you want to update.
- Click the three-dot icon on the right side of the customer's row.
- Select Edit.
- Update the customer's information.
- Click Save.
The customer's information will be updated immediately.
Please note: If you need to update a customer's On-Site or Accounting contacts, click into the customer's profile and then the Contacts tab. See the article: How to Add or Edit a Customer Contact.
Merge customers
If you have duplicate customer profiles, you can merge them into a single customer. This will merge their contacts and orders into one customer profile.
Important: Merging customers cannot be undone. Make sure you select the correct customers before completing the merge.
- In the left-hand navigation bar, click Customers.
- Find the customer you want to merge.
- Click the three-dot icon on the right side of the customer's row.

- Click the Merge button to complete the merge.
Merging is useful when the same customer has been accidentally created more than once.
Archive a customer
Customers cannot be deleted, but you can archive a customer if they are no longer active. Archived customers are hidden from the main Customers list by default and are no longer available for selection when creating orders.
