The following steps will show you how to create a customer in Method's Contacts App. Customers are synced to QuickBooks.
Click New on the Contacts App or click New Contact from your Contacts List.
This opens a New Contact screen. Make sure the Customer option is selected under type of contact you wish to add.
Filling out the rest of the details should be intuitive, however, there are a few fields we will clarify.

Sales Rep (QuickBooks Desktop only): This is the Sales Rep the lead will be assigned to.
Assigned To (QuickBooks Online only): Method:CRM User the lead will be assigned to.

Opt Out of Marketing: Throughout Method, you have the ability to send marketing emails to your contacts, for example, by using the Email Campaigns app. Check this for contacts who do not wish to receive marketing email from Method.
Opt Out of Billing: Many transactions have the ability to send a notification via email and SMS. Any contact flagged to opt out of billing will not get these notifications.
Click Save to save the contact and customer lead, or Save & New to save and clear the fields.
