+### Set Initial Values for Built-In License Fields
+
+You can set initial values to populate the **Create Customer** form in the Vendor Portal when a new customer is created. This ensures that each new customer created from the Vendor Portal UI starts with the same set of built-in license field values. These _initial_ values differ from _default_ values in that setting initial values does not update the license field values for any existing customers.
 
 :::note
 Initial values are not applied to new customers created through the Vendor API v3. For more information, see [Create a customer](https://replicated-vendor-api.readme.io/reference/createcustomer-1) in the Vendor API v3 documentation.

 ## Manage Custom License Fields
 
 You can create custom license fields in the Vendor Portal. For example, you can create a custom license field to set the number of active users permitted. Or, you can create a field that sets the number of nodes a customer is permitted on their cluster.

 ## Archive a Customer
 
 When you archive a customer in the Vendor Portal, the customer is hidden from search by default and becomes read-only. Archival does not affect the utility of license files downloaded before the customer was archived.
