# Customer Management

The customer record: which assets they own, which services they receive, who their contacts are, and who can log into the customer portal.

*Operations → Customer Management*

## What this page is for

Customer Management is the register of the people and organisations you deliver to. A customer record ties together three things that otherwise live apart: the **assets** they own, the **services** you provide on those assets, and the **people** who should hear about them.

Because customers are linked to systems, this record is also what makes "filter by customer" work on the fleet list, on Insights & Alerts, and in reports.

*The customer list, with the assets and contract columns.*

## The list

-   **Name**, **Email**, **Phone** — the primary contact details.
-   **Account Manager** — the colleague who owns the relationship. Also a filter, both here and on the fleet list.
-   **Charge Points**, **PV Systems**, **Storage** — how many assets of each type are attached. A zero here is the usual reason a customer's data looks empty elsewhere.
-   **Joined At** and **Contract Expiration** — the commercial window. Sort by Contract Expiration to see what needs renewing.

The toolbar has search, an **Account Manager** filter, a **Services** filter, the column picker and **+** to add a customer. The row menu offers **Edit** and **Delete**.

*Adding a customer — details, assets, services and contacts on one page.*

### Details

**Customer Name** (required), **Email**, **Phone**, **Joined At** and **Contract Expiration**.

### Assets

**Systems**, **Batteries** and **Charge Points** — multi-select pickers. Everything downstream depends on this: revenue attribution, the customer's portal view, which alerts they can be notified about, and which sites a customer-scoped report covers.

### Account & Billing

**Account Manager**, **Service Cost**, **Annual Washes** and the **Billing Address** that appears on the invoice.

### Contacts

**Add Contact** holds the people around the account — site manager, facilities, finance — separately from the portal login.

### Portal Users

People who can sign in to the customer portal and see their own assets. The panel is only available once the customer is saved: *Save the customer first to manage portal users.* Add a user, and they receive access scoped to that customer's assets.

### Services

Toggles for what you deliver: **Monitoring**, **Cleaning**, **Cleaning Control**, **Annual Maintenance**, **Technician Visits**, **Accounting** and **Send App Invitation**.

These are not decoration — they drive the Services filter on the list, and they tell your team at a glance whether a site visit is covered by contract or chargeable.

### Notifications

**Send Notifications on Service Calls** and **Share Service Calls** control whether the customer is told when work is raised on their assets, and whether they can see it. Turn them on for customers who want visibility, off for those who prefer a monthly summary.

## Common tasks

**Onboard a new customer.** + → name and contract dates → attach their systems → set the services you deliver → Save → add portal users and contacts.

**Give a customer portal access.** Open the customer → Portal Users → Add User. They see only the assets attached to this record.

**Find contracts expiring this quarter.** Sort by Contract Expiration.

**Hand over an account.** Change the Account Manager; the fleet list and insights can then be filtered by the new owner.

**Check what a customer is entitled to.** Open the record and read the Services toggles before quoting a visit.

## Common questions

**A customer's portal is empty.**  
No assets are attached to the record, or the portal user was created against a different customer.

**Why can't I add portal users yet?**  
The customer must be saved first — the panel says so.

**The customer is not offered when I filter the fleet list.**  
Customer filters only show customers with systems attached.
