Good day, steen,
That's a great question! Let me help you with your customer setup.
Once you add a new job to an existing customer, QuickBooks will automatically apply its Customer Type to the job. You'll only need to make sure you're able to set the client's Customer type first before adding the job.
Let me guide you through the steps:
However, if you added the job prior to adding the Customer Type in the customer's profile, your only option is to update the jobs manually. Here's how:

If you did not have Customer Type already defaulted when adding jobs, or you need to Change it, then don't bother with the Edit Name function. Go to Lists menu > Add/Edit Multiple > Customers, Customize the Columns to put this info as a column into your view. Put Job Of and Customer Type, for instance, on your view and to your left. Now put the customer name in the search field. Update Customer Type, right click, Copy Down. Hit Save.
Thank you!
