The elegance of use was one of the major selling points of this template. At first, I was going to do all the inputs on each customer detail tab, but then the user would need to toggle all the tabs to update this. The solution was to make all the inputs easily adjustable for each of the 10 customer configurations right on the summary tab. Having this all in one spot dramatically improves experience.

An index tab shows a high level description of each tab as well as definitions of key terms.
