Customer Information

If Xero can't match the customer name from Workbench with an existing customer in Xero, a new customer will be created.
Note: The names must match exactly in both systems, otherwise a new supplier will be created. Be careful not to have extra spaces at the end of names.
The Postal Address information from Workbench will update the Postal Address information against the customer in Xero, each time an invoice is imported for that customer. This will happen regardless of whether the invoice is for a new customer or an existing customer.
