    Default Phone order through backend

    I've installed Zencart on a testing server, and I'm lacking one important feature - I wonder if this is available as a module, or someone has any useful tips.

    I need a backend where an employee can create an order directly through the backend without having the navigate the site pretending to be the client.

    TIA!

    Best to do this from the front end but can use masterpass this way the order is entered and can be tracked and you have a record of the customer & purchases

    Just to get an idea - would I log in with the customer's username and have a master password that would work for all accounts? (sounds like a security risk).

    If this is you what is the risk?

    If a new customer you develop a "Script" and ask them their name, email, address etc.
    and create the account telling them that you track by email address or???

    A repeat customer would be asked the email address and you use the master pass
