Create and Edit Customer Profiles

The Customer Profile page appears when you click Commands > Create Customer or choose Actions > Edit to edit the customer profile in the search results. Response users with a valid employee ID or e-mail address can see customer profles as well.

Note: Connect does not validate the data you enter for a customer profile.



Create New Customer Profile

Follow these directions to add a new customer.
  1. From the Customer Browser, click Commands > Add Customer. The Customer Profile screen appears.
  2. Complete as many fields as possible for the customer.
  3. From the Content Type drop-down list, select how the customer wants to receive information. Options include:
    • Short Text (This is usually an SMS message.)
    • HTML
    • Text
  4. Click the Save button. The customer is added to the database.
Note: Connect sends Multi-Part Alternative content (MPA) to each customer with Unknown as the Content Type. When the customer opens the e-mail, Tracker detects the content capabilities of the customer’s e-mail client and updates the customer’s Content Type. For example, if the customer opens your message with an HTML-capable e-mail client, Tracker will update the customer’s Content Type to HTML.
