Contacts
Commerce Connect automatically creates a contact when a visitor registers on the storefront. Customers can log in and view personalized information with the account. You can also manually create contacts.
Note
You cannot manually create an account and associate it with a contact in Customers. This functionality will be available in a future version.
You can use customer groups and organizations to structure contacts for various purposes. For example, you can assign a customer group to an organization to determine pricing eligibility. An organization contact is a member of that organization's customer group, even if you assign the contact individually to a different customer group.
