From the customer list, users can open a customer record to view different types of information, including customer details, related vouchers, sales orders, service orders, ledger, transactions, and attachments. They can also access cheque information, service requests, tickets, sales point data, loan products, assigned routes, asset assignments, new sales orders, and vouchers that are not linked to sales.
