How do you create a new customer in QuickBooks?

To create a new customer in QuickBooks, navigating to the Customers menu and selecting "New Customer" is the standard process. This option allows users to access the customer form directly within the application, where they can enter all necessary details such as the customer’s name, contact information, billing address, and other relevant data. It's a straightforward and user-friendly method designed for efficiency.

The other methods listed are not typical for creating a customer directly within QuickBooks. Filling out a customer form and submitting it suggests a manual or perhaps an external process, which isn't how QuickBooks internal operations are structured. Importing customer data from an external file is a process used when bringing in bulk customer information but is not the primary way to add a new individual customer. Lastly, calling QuickBooks support for assistance is not a method for creating a customer; support is available for troubleshooting or guidance, not for executing routine tasks like customer creation. Thus, focusing on the Customers menu is the simplest and most effective approach for adding new customers directly in QuickBooks.
