*How do I assign a Relationship Type to a customer?*

***

# Assigning Relationship Types to a Customer

There are **two ways** to assign a relationship type to a customer:

1. Individually via the contact.
2. Via bulk actions at the contact level.

## Assigning a Relationship Type to an Individual Contact

Open the contact and choose **Edit** or create a new customer. At the bottom right, you will find the **Extra** section. Here you can assign one or multiple relationship types.

## Assigning a Relationship Type via a Bulk Action

Open the *list view* of **Contacts** and select at least one contact in the list to which you want to assign a relationship type.

Then go to **Actions** - **Add Relationship Types**.

In the same way, you can also remove the relationship type for a selected number of contacts in a bulk action by going to **Actions **and choosing **Remove Relationship Type.**
