Overview & Examples
To begin add items to your order as usual, and then touch the F2 "Bill To Cust" button in the top right corner.
Using the F3 "Add Customer" button will invoke the new screen.
| Tip |

If you get an error "NO ORDER CONTROL FOUND FOR XXCan't find template" it is because you have not setup your customer template properly! |
...
Once the new screen is up, the amount of information you enter will determine the type of account that will be created (Full Account or Email Only), as long as email only account creation is enabled in MOC.
If there is any question as to what type of account is about to be created you can observe the text of the confirmation F1 button as well as the message line before you confirm the account information.
Buttons Overview
Shipping Address:
Data Entered into the main page of the new screen is for Shipping Address information. If your customer has an alternate billing address first enter the complete shipping address information and press enter. This will unlock the F3 "Billing Address" button.
...
You can scan driver's licenses to help speed the data entry of new customer information. To scan a driver's license touch the F10 button labeled "Scan/Swipe I.D." a scan prompt will appear. If the drivers license format is not recognized by the software you will receive an error. An automated system message will alert our development staff that an unrecognized format has appeared, we will add support for the new format ASAP. States are free to change the format of the driver's license data at any time, so this will be an ongoing process to keep current.

Pro Tip: Addresses listed on drivers licenses are often out of date. After you scan a license you will want to check with the customer that the information is current before accepting it. |
