Frequently Asked Questions

Will vehicle details change when I switch customers?

The Vehicle selection must be updated separately, as the new Customer will have different vehicles on file. If you need one Customer to pay an Invoice for a Vehicle owned by a second Customer Split the invoice or use a Customer Biller instead.

Can I change the customer on a processed Invoice?

No, processed Invoices are locked. You would need to copy the Invoice first or create a new Invoice for the correct Customer.
