Customer Category
The Customer Category feature in PrismERP helps organize customers into groups like Dealer, Corporate, or Retail, making it easy to manage discounts and service rates consistently. Users can define the category name, display order, default global discount, exceptions, and invoice settings while adding a new category. The Customer Category List in PrismERP allows searching, filtering, and marking categories as active or inactive for smooth management. Users can also view all key details and edit any information to keep customer settings accurate and up-to-date.
