How to Create Customer Status in Swiftly Workspace
Step 1: Accessing the Customer Status Configuration
Let’s begin by opening Swiftly Workspace.
From the homepage:
Click on Configuration
Then select Master Data Management
A new window will appear.
Scroll to the Customer section and click on Customer Status.
Step 2: Understanding the Purpose
Customer statuses help you quickly classify and manage your customers based on their current relationship with your business.
By clearly defining these statuses, you can:
Filter customers accurately in your dashboards
Segment communications and workflows
Maintain clean and reliable customer records
Step 3: Creating a Customer Status
To add a new customer status:
Click the “+” button in the top right
Enter the name of the status (e.g., Active Partner, Potential Lead, Archived Client)
In this example, we’ll create a status called “Potential Lead” and set the toggle to Prospect.
You’ll see three toggle options:
Active – for customers who are currently doing business with you.
Prospect – for leads or potential clients still in the pipeline.
Deactivated – for customers no longer active, due to churn, inactivity, or other reasons.
Important: Only one of these toggles can be selected per status. This design ensures clarity and avoids overlapping customer categorization.
These toggles are especially useful for:
Smart filtering of customer lists
Triggering workflows (e.g., sending onboarding emails for new active clients)
Ensuring accurate reporting on active, potential, and deactivated segments
Click Save to store the entry.
Step 4: Editing and Updating a Customer Status
To make changes:
Click on the customer status you created
This opens the detail/edit view
From here, you can:
Rename the status
Change the toggle between Active, Prospect, or Deactivated
Adjust whether the status is currently visible or in use
Click Save to confirm your updates.
Use Save & Close only when you’ve completed all edits, as it will exit the Master Data Management window.
Step 5: Reviewing Customer Status Logs
To view a full change history:
Click the (i) button in the top right corner
You’ll see:
