# Customer
### What is Customer module?
The Customer module in XoroERP facilitates efficient customer management by capturing essential information and offering customization options.
{% hint style="info" %}
To create a customer, users navigate to **Menu > Sales > Customer Section > Customer**
{% endhint %}
To create a customer, users navigate to Menu > Sales > Customer Section > Customer and fill in primary details such as Customer Type, Company Name, and Sales Rep.
Further details are added through tabs such as Contact Info, allowing for the input of email addresses, phone numbers, and addresses. The system selects the email for communication, based on a hierarchy. The Payments tab enables setting up payment information, including default accounts and payment terms, while the Shipping tab configures shipping details.
### Use Cases
The Sales Tax tab facilitates tax configuration, and the Other Info tab allows for additional details like Business Number and Customer Tags. Users can enable/disable notifications and manage portal settings in dedicated tabs. Custom Fields provide flexibility for unique business requirements.
Advanced Configuration options optimize order allocation processes, while header-level options like Create Duplicate and various action buttons streamline workflows. These actions include creating estimates, sales orders, sales receipts, invoices, and sending portal invitations or direct debit requests.
The module also allows for updating existing customer information, providing comprehensive functionality for efficient customer relationship management within XoroERP.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.xorosoft.com/xoroerp-1/sales/customer-section/customer.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
