Introduction

It is important to have easy access to all of your customer's data. The Customers tab contains all of this data, and allows users to take action on that data.

This page describes the customer record, including how to view, create, and update customer information.

See Using Records for more information on Appian Records.

Viewing information for a customer

From the Connected Onboarding site, clicking CUSTOMERS displays a list of customer records. You can filter this list by searching for a customer or filtering by customer type.

Clicking a customer name displays the record for that customer. The record displays all of the pertinent information for a particular customer. This information is split into several different pages, which are outlined in the following sections.

Summary tab

The Summary tab lists the important information about a customer.

The following customer information is listed on this page:

1. Active Alerts: If an alert is open for the customer, it displays Alerts list with the most recent alerts at the top. The user can filter by SOURCE, dismiss active alerts, or create NEW alerts manually. To see the full alert message, hover over the alert icon.
2. Customer Lifecycle Events: Any lifecycle event that has occured for this customer will be displayed here with pertinent information. Users can search, filter, and export the EVENTS list.

4. Beneficial Owners: Any beneficial owners for the customer and the ability to add/edit or remove them.
5. Entity Relationships: Any entity relationships that have been entered for the customer and the ability to add/edit or remove them.
6. Documents: All documents that haven been uploaded to either the customer or any of the event records.

Basic Info tab

The Basic Info tab shows all customer information. The customer information is split up into the following groups:

It is possible to update all the information on this page directly from here using the edit , add , and delete icons.

The Documents tab shows all of the documents associated with a customer.

On this page, you can:

1. Search for a particular document by name.
2. Filter by document type.
