View, Add, and Edit Your Customers

Customers are the companies whose IT and cloud infrastructure you manage and to whom you deliver a customized array of managed services. The All Customers page is where you can view and administer your customers with a set of easy-to-use tools and features.

Clicking a customer in the list takes you to the Customer Overview page, where you’ll see important customer data such as a summary, top services, and service status. From here you can also access and work with customers’ feeds, projects, users, groups, endpoints, computers, gateway, and resource information.

View Customers

To view the customers within the selected workgroup, click All Customers in the left navigation pane.

The All Customers page displays all the customers managed for that workgroup, including their location and status. From the list, you can access each company’s users, devices, and services. The list can be searched, sorted, or filtered in various ways.

Important

When you sign in to MSPComplete, you’ll notice that there is a default customer. Although you can assign projects to this default customer, the recommended best practice is to create new customers.

Sort, Search, and Filter Customers

MSPComplete now makes it easy to view, monitor, and manage customers’ activities, progress, and status on the All Customers page. The Sort, Filter, and Search tools will quickly get you to the specific customer information that you need.  For example, you might need to sort all of your customers by geographic location for a quarterly global sales report you plan to generate.

Sort customers by name or location

  1. Select the appropriate workgroup and click All Customers in the left navigation pane.
  2. Click Sort.
  3. Click either Customer Name or Location.

    Tip

    To the left of each option in the Sort menu are two arrows. Click the top arrow to set an ascending sort order (A, B, C…) or the bottom arrow to choose a descending order (Z, Y, X…).

Filter Customers by Current Status

  1. Select the appropriate workgroup and click All Customers in the left navigation pane.
  2. Click Filter.
  3. Click either Active or Archived.

Search for a Customer

  1. Select the appropriate workgroup and click All Customers in the left navigation pane.
  2. Enter the customer name in the Search box.
  3. Press Enter.

Note that each item of customer data in the bottom half of the All Customers page is linked. Clicking any of these data items will take you to the appropriate tab under All Customers, where you can proceed with your task.

Archive and Reactivate Customers

You might have customers for whom you don’t provide or manage services for long periods. You can archive those inactive customers so that they don’t clutter your view in MSPComplete. Archiving inactive customers also ensures that you won’t inadvertently make changes to them. You can easily reactivate those customers later.      

Complete the steps below to archive or reactivate customers:

  1. Select the appropriate workgroup and click All Customers in the left navigation pane.
  2. Complete one of the following actions:
    • If the customer is currently active, point to the customer you want to archive, and then click the Archive Customer icon on the right.
    • If the customer is currently archived, filter the customer list on Archived, point to the customer in the archived list, and then click the Reactivate Customer icon on the right.
  3. Click Yes when prompted to confirm the action.

    Important

    You cannot delete customers in MSPComplete. This is by design. Although your MSP relationship with a customer might have been inactive for a long time, you may want to do business with that customer again at some point in the future. Reactivating a customer immediately restores all that customer’s saved entities and information, including any associated feeds, projects, users, groups, endpoints, computers, gateways, and resources. You won’t need to manually recreate and reconfigure the customer’s profile and settings.
