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 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

HTML-capable e-mail client, Tracker will update the customer’s Content Type to
HTML.
