How to update customer and contact information?

  1. First, download the customer or contact list in the client list

  2. Make changes to the downloaded file

  3. Go to the client import view and upload the updated file

  4. Check that the information is added to the correct fields

NB! If customers have a client code and/or company number, then these fields must be linked when updating the data so that Uku knows which existing company to update.
