Customers are visitors to the Web site who place orders in the online shop. Customers have order-related data such as the invoice address and delivery address, tax model and tax region, invoice data, etc. There can be registered and unregistered customers. Unregistered customers must provide their customer data for each order. Registered customers have undergone the registration process, and have entered all the required customer data during that stage. In addition, they are allocated user names and passwords, thus providing them with user accounts in addition to their customer accounts. As users, registered customers can be given permissions for certain commands. See also Users, above
