This section displays the payment tender type, the last four digits of the credit card (if a credit card is used as a tender type), and the credit card's expiry date.

Cash, On Account, and Check orders will not display detailed information except the type of tender used.



Billing Information

The customer's billing information is indicated in this section. Billing information includes First Name, Last Name, Company, Address, City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code, Phone Number, Email Address, and Birthdate. This can be edited by clicking the magnifying glass icon next to the First/Last Name, directing you to the General tab of the customer's contact record.


Change the 'Billing' contact record.

You can change the billing contact associated with an order after the order has been placed. Note that this does not affect the shipping information or change the order's payment details (i.e., shipping, taxes, handling, etc. do not change). This attaches an order to a contact's record.

First, click the swap customer icon shown below.

Then search for the contact you'd like to add to this order and click search. If only one record matched your search criteria, they would be added to the order. If you have multiple forms that document your search criteria, you can select the contact you'd like (shown in the image below).

You will then notice that the new billing contact shows within the Billing Information section and that the Shipping Information section remains unchanged. Note there is no way to change this shipping information unless you cancel/refund this initial order and create a new order.



Shipping Information

The Shipping Information indicates where the order will be shipped to. If the receiver of the order is a different person than the Billing Information, it will be displayed in this section. Shipping information includes First Name, Last Name, Company, Address, City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code, Phone Number, Email Address, and Birthdate.
