Hi there,
May i know how to upload the updated customer template list when i already uploaded the same list once?
It shows that the customer already exist and i can't map the additional info into the customer details.
Is there any way to map it or to delete the existing one?
Appreciate your help.

Hi there, @cozyhomes.
Thank you for reaching out to us here on the Community forum. I'll help you with modifying the customer's template list or information in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
You don't need to delete the existing customer in your record. To modify the information, you can add them through the customer's profile. Here's how:
But if you need to add a customized field, you may delete and re-upload the customer's information. For your reference, you can check out these articles:
You can also import your customers from Outlook or Gmail, here's how: Import customers or suppliers from email contacts to QuickBooks Online.
Once everything is set, you can review the topics from this link for more hints about handling your sales and other customer's transactions: Manage Customers and income for QBO-International.

hi Angelyn,
Is there any way that i can update the whole customer list and upload at one go ?
To edit one by one is too time consuming. If not, how do I delete the existing customer? to deactivate it ?

Hi there, cozyhomes.
Welcome back to the thread. I'll share additional details on how customer's information in QuickBooks Online works.
Currently, there's no option to update the whole customer list at once. editing their information one by one is the only way you can perform.
However, you have the option to make all your customer inactive to remove them from the list. Then, manually import your customer's details or data by bulk into QuickBooks. Before that, please make sure to make any changes or add extra characters in the customer's name before deactivating them. This is because the QuickBooks system won't accept any of the same customer's names to avoid duplicate details to ensure your data is accurate.
Here's how to make a customer inactive:
