Introduction
The Customers section lists the details of customers whose accounts are created by themselves in the store front or by administrators in the back end. Details include login information, address books, store credits and the wishlists.
The address books are necessary when a customer wants to deliver products to different addresses. Store credits present the amount of money which is stored in the Cart. It may come from merchandise return in the form of Refund, or from store presentation by administrators. Also it can be used to purchase products in the store as ready money.
