Setting the loyalty points on an existing customer

NOTES:

• Process this in Test first to make sure you are getting the results you are after. Only after you run it in Test and are happy with the results do we recommend that you then process this in your Readysell live system.

• Steps 1 & 2 should only ever be done once and never again. Steps 3, 4 & 5 only need to be repeated for any additional customers.

• You must speak to Readysell for the second time you need to run this to avoid any mistakes that could cost you for Readysell to fix them.
