About customer data fields

Most fields on the Manage customers window do not display standard field labels to the left of each field. Instead, the field name is contained within the field as gray text. As data is entered in the field, the text changes to black as shown in the following example:

Fields in the Name area (Manage customers window)

Fields on the Manage customers window are shown using different type colors or background colors to show their status.

  • When there is no data in a field, the field label is shown inside the text box in gray, for example, the Prefix field in the previous example.
  • When you select a field by selecting it directly or tabbing to it, the entire field label text is highlighted so that it can be easily replaced, for example, the Last Name field in the previous example.
  • When the field has a value defined, the data is shown in black, for example, the First Name field in the previous example.
