Customers

A customer is the final destination point of every product shipped from a DC / factory. Use this table to define the customers consuming the products of your supply chain.

On deleting a customer you will also delete its demand.

The customer of the selected record will be highlighted on the map.

A DC may be used as a shadow object for a customer. This will allow the customer to have inventory.

Column	Description
Name	Specify the name of the new customer. It must be a meaningful name since you will refer to it in other anyLogistix tables.
Type	Customer type. The default customer type is “Customer”, but it can be replaced with your own customer type. Select the type of the site: Customer (Online Shop) — custom type that is used in the SIM Online Shop (Variation experiment) example.
Location	Reference to a particular location defined in the Locations table.
Inclusion Type	Defines the status of the given customer. Include — include this customer into supply chain configuration. Exclude — exclude this customer from supply chain configuration. If selected, the table record will be grayed out to denote the current inclusion type. The table record stays editable.
Additional Parameters	Contains parameters of the extended object that is selected in the Type column of this table.
Icon	Here you define an icon that will represent this particular object only. All other objects of this type will keep their current icons. Initially the default icon is set to all customers (can be changed in Edit icons).
