9.1. Adding a Customer

You can add an unlimited number of customers to Ritapos. To begin, press the "+" button on the Customers page in the menu.

Because different people can have the same first and last name, Ritapos identifies customers uniquely by their phone numbers. After entering your customer's phone number in the relevant field, press the "Add" button to open the customer form.

Customer form

There are no required fields on the form other than the customer's name. The phone number is prefilled with the number entered on the previous form, and the gender field is set to none. When receipts are printed for orders assigned to customers with a selected gender, personalized thank-you messages such as Thank You Mr. Ali or Thank You Ms. Ayse are displayed.

A customer can have multiple addresses. To add a new address for the customer, press the "+" button. Select the customer's active address to be added to the order in the "Address to add to order" field. If you do not select one, the first address will be selected automatically.

The discount field can be edited by users with business manager permissions or higher, and this discount is automatically applied to an order assigned to the customer.

You can also use the notes field to enter notes you want to keep about your customer.

The "Save" button saves the customer information, while the "Save and Open Order" button saves any changes you made to the customer information and then opens a new order assigned to that customer.
