Edit Client Detail

In Client Detail, you can add and manage a wide range of client account information. It is a good habit to review an existing client's detail every time you communicate with them to ensure that their information is up-to-date — this article will assist you in editing that information. Any changes you make are automatically saved when you close the account; the system records your username and the timestamp so others can see who last edited the account. If you need to add a new client, see Add a Client.
