The Name field is for the name of customer, not the name of a contact person. You can put contact names and information into the Additional Information field near the bottom of the input screen.

Yes, but the only way to see that is to go back into the edit, I would like to see the other information in the Customer screen… At the moment you can only see the business name, phone and email…
