You need to associate your carriers and customers to each location with the company users, who will only have access to that location. Once a customer is related to a location, the system will show the customers associated with that location within their customer account as the Main Location if this setting is enabled. For more information, read Customer Settings. Keep in mind that if the Main Location setting is not enabled, Komet Sales will only display customers associated with that location.

Maximum number of active locations
If your company reaches the maximum number of active locations, you cannot reactivate an inactive location. If you need more locations, please email support@kometsales.com to upgrade your subscription plan.
