Order Entry 'accidentally' changing customer.
Sometimes it is reported that the customer has been changed by the software. It usually transpires that the operator has done the change particularly if they are typing keystrokes in advance.
To resolve this there is an option to lock the customer selected. This is in Settings / Job entry / Customer section.
If it is wished to unlock a customer then the customer entry can be unlocked by clicking on the icon in the top right of the customer box.
