Customer Items
Customer Items is an option that is available when creating a new Customer or editing an existing Customer. This option is used to create a list of Invoice Items with a default sales price to be used when that Invoice Item is selected on invoices created for the customer or when creating new recurring lines. This feature would be used if your company has special pricing on certain services for a particular customer. Each customer may have its own list of Customer Items with unique pricing.
Customer Items is used in the following situations.
Service Tickets – Other Charges; if an Invoice Item is selected on the Other charges tab of a service ticket and that Invoice Item in on the Customer Items list, the sales price will default to the amount from the Customer Items.
Miscellaneous Invoices – If an Invoice Item is selected on the Items tab of a Miscellaneous Invoice and that Invoice Item in on the Customer Items list, the sales price will default to the amount from the Customer Items.
Creating a new Recurring Line - If an Invoice Item is selected on the New Recurring form and that Invoice Item in on the Customer Items list, the sales price will default to the amount from the Customer Items.
There is also a similar feature available at the Site level referred to as Site Items. Follow the link for more information on Site Items.
