When entering a new customer in SME, the first and third phone number fields sync to QuickBooks Phone and FAX phone numbers as shown in the image below. Even if you change the phone label in SME, it still will sync the first and third phone number fields.

<h4>Leaving Site Address Blank</h4>
 
If you leave the Site Address blank in SME, after your sync with QuickBooks, the billing address will populate the site tab. To keep the billing address out of the site tab, put a "." in the address1 field on the site tab.

=== If Merging Quickbooks Customer ===
 
 
''' When merging customers we recommend you do as follows: '''
 
*Merge the customer in QB – This will move all of the info to the merge customer and will set the merged customer in SME to Inactive. All historical records will remain tied to the inactive customer.
 
*Sync – this will record the QB action and will set the merged customer in SME to Inactive.
 
*Merge the customer in SME – This will move all of the historical info to the merge customer and will leave the merged customer as inactive. (You can delete the customer once it has been merged). Note: The only change to historical data in SME is the Billing/Parent UID is replaced on the merged records. All address info, etc. remains as originally entered.
