This screen is the Customer Professional Information portion of the Customer Record. Notice that the profile doesn't just ask for formulas 1, 2 or 3, but allows you to indicate precisely which products they are using. The traditional Basic is there, but so are the new TimeWise products and other exciting items you now carry. The $2,182.75 at the top of the screen indicates how much product this customer has bought from you since you last re-set those figures. The DCMS also keeps track of the last discount given (and when), and what each customer owes you, or if they have a credit. The DCMS  prompts you to include those accounts receivable or credit in your next sale.

Below, is the third screen in a customer's record which lists every item the customer bought from you, and when. It also indicates what was returned. The -1 in the quantity field indicates a return. For instance, it is obvious that Marg returned a Masking Cleanser 1 and bought a Masking Cleanser 2 in its place on November 13, 99. The DCMS handles these transactions with ease.

The purchase also gives you a link to the ability to record a sale for this this customer, or the accounts receivable utility. By double-clicking on the "Owes" field, you get the ability to record payments or review this customer's account. This is power plus elegance.
