This screen warns that the phone number of a "new" customer already belongs to a customer in the Customer Center. You have various options for a response.
You begin to create a customer sale invoice. You do not see the customer in the Customer Center, so you choose to Add a customer. You are prompted to enter the new customer's phone number.
POSitive will check for a duplicate value in the Lookup Code field and warn you with this screen.
