Contact management > Customizing cards > Card identification codes
If you have assigned identification codes (IDs) such as customer numbers or account numbers to your customers, you can enter those IDs in their cards.
You can also set a preference that will let you select customers by their ID instead of their last name or company name when entering a transaction. Customer search lists will also be sorted by their ID when this preference is set.
If you choose this preference, you will have to select all card types by their IDs.
