Common Questions
Q: Why doesn't my search find a customer I know exists?
A: Common reasons:
- Misspelled name in search or database
- Customer listed under different name variant
- Searching for location address instead of customer name (try location search)
Q: Can I search by job or equipment information?
A: Not directly from the Customers page. Instead:
- Go to Jobs page and search there
- Go to Equipment/Units page to find by unit details
- View customer from job/equipment detail page
Q: Can I search across multiple organizations?
A: No, customer searches are limited to the currently selected organization. Switch organizations using the organization switcher if you have access to multiple.
