Work with customer buying groups, Assigned/All customers (DSR06801)

The “Assigned customers” mode is the default mode when you first access this panel, but you can toggle to “All customers” mode to assign the buying group to one or several customers simultaneously by clicking the Assign option, or by entering a sequence number for the applicable customer(s). When you use the Assign option, the sequence number is defaulted depending on the customer. This means that if the customer is not assigned to any buying group, the sequence will be set equal to 10. If the customer is already assigned to a buying group, the sequence will be set to the highest sequence for customer (by adding 10 to the currently highest sequence number for the customer).

Valid from/to dates, denoting the time span under which the buying group is valid, may also be defined. Likewise, a date update can be performed per assigned customer, or for all selected assigned customers.
