Managing customers
Add and edit the organizations your agency serves.
AT A GLANCE
- The Customers page is a table of every customer your agency serves.
- Add a customer with the + button at the top right of the table. Name, email, and team are required; everything else is optional.
- Edit a customer by clicking their row in the table.
- Team scope. Any team can take a request for any customer, but your team’s access determines which customers you can manage.
The Customers page
The Customers page lives in your agency’s main navigation and shows a table of every customer you serve. From here you can add new customers, find existing ones, and open a customer to edit their details.
Who you can see: customers are organized by team. Any team can take a request for any customer (see Teams), but managing customer records is scoped to the teams you belong to.
Adding a customer
Click the + button at the top right of the Customers table. A modal opens with the fields below.
Required
- Name — the customer’s organization name.
- Email — a primary contact email.
- Team — which of your teams this customer is associated with.
Optional
- Website
- Phone
- Fax
- Location — address, city, state, ZIP.
- Billing address — set as Same as location or Different. Choose Different to enter a separate billing address.
Click Save, and the customer appears in the table. You can immediately start creating appointments for them.
Editing a customer
Click any row in the Customers table to open the customer record. You can edit the same fields you filled in when adding them — name, email, team, contact details, and addresses.
Changes save when you submit the form.
Coming soon
A few additions to the customer experience are planned:
- Customer profile pages. A dedicated profile page for each customer, with rates, cancellation policy, onboarding requirements, appointment history, and contacts all in one place. Today, cancellation policy is agency-wide rather than per-customer.
- Per-customer request fields. Customize the fields that appear on the appointment request form on a per-customer basis — for example, a “courtroom” field for a courthouse customer, or a “department” field for a hospital customer. See Custom request fields for more.
- Customer invitations. Invite a customer to create their own Fluent account and use the request portal, with their account connected to your agency.
