+## Property Details
+
+### customerGroups
+- customerGroups: [Collection](dw.util.Collection.md) `(read-only)`
+  - : Returns the customer groups of the current site.
+
+
+---
+
+### passwordConstraints
+- passwordConstraints: [CustomerPasswordConstraints](dw.customer.CustomerPasswordConstraints.md) `(read-only)`
+  - : Returns an instance of [CustomerPasswordConstraints](dw.customer.CustomerPasswordConstraints.md)
+      for the customer list assigned to the current site.
+
+
+
+---
+
+### registeredCustomerCount
+- registeredCustomerCount: [Number](TopLevel.Number.md) `(read-only)`
+  - : Returns the number of registered customers in the system. This number can be used for reporting
+      purposes.
+
+
+
+---
+
+### siteCustomerList
+- siteCustomerList: [CustomerList](dw.customer.CustomerList.md) `(read-only)`
+  - : Returns the customer list of the current site.
+
+
+---
+
+## Method Details
+
+### authenticateCustomer(String, String)
+- static authenticateCustomer(login: [String](TopLevel.String.md), password: [String](TopLevel.String.md)): [AuthenticationStatus](dw.customer.AuthenticationStatus.md)
+  - : This method authenticates a customer using the supplied login and password. It will not log in the customer into
+      the current session, but returns only a status indicating success or failure (with different error codes for the failure cases).
+      Upon successful authentication (status code 'AUTH\_OK') the status object also holds the authenticated customer.
+      To continue the login process, call the loginCustomer(AuthenticationStatus, boolean) method.
+      
+      This method verifies that the password for the customer is not expired. If it is expired the authentication will fail, with a status code of
+      ERROR\_PASSWORD\_EXPIRED. This allows the storefront to require the customer to change the password, and then the login can proceed.
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - login - Login name, must not be null.
+    - password - Password, must not be null.
+
+    **Returns:**
+    - the status of the authentication process
+
+
+---
+
+### createCustomer(String, String)
+- static createCustomer(login: [String](TopLevel.String.md), password: [String](TopLevel.String.md)): [Customer](dw.customer.Customer.md)
+  - : Creates a new Customer using the supplied login, password. The system automatically assigns a customer number based on
+      the customer sequence numbers configured for the site or organization. The number is guaranteed to be unique, but is not guaranteed to be sequential.
+      It can be higher or lower than a previously created number. As a result, sorting customers by customer number is not guaranteed to sort them in their
+      order of creation.
+      
+      
+      The method throws an exception if any of the following conditions are encountered:
+      
+      - A Customer with the supplied Login already exists
+      - The Login is not acceptable.
+      - The Password is not acceptable.
+      - The system cannot create the Customer.
+      
+      
+      
+      A valid login name is between 1 and 256 characters in length (not counting leading or trailing whitespace), and may contain only the
+      following characters:
+      
+      - alphanumeric (Unicode letters or decimal digits)
+      - space
+      - period
+      - dash
+      - underscore
+      - @
+      
+      
+      
+      Note: a storefront can be customized to provide further constraints on characters in a login name, but it cannot remove any constraints described above.
+      
+      
+      If customers are created using this Script API call then any updated to the customer records should be done through Script API calls as well.
+      The customer records created with Script API call should not be updated with OCAPI calls as the email validation is handled
+      differently in these calls and may result in InvalidEmailException.
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - login - The unique login name associated with the new customer and its profile, must not be null. If login is already in use, an exception will be thrown.
+    - password - Customer plain customer password, which is encrypted before it is stored at the profile, must not be null.
+
+    **Returns:**
+    - customer The new customer object.
+
+

+
+### createCustomer(String, String, String)
+- static createCustomer(login: [String](TopLevel.String.md), password: [String](TopLevel.String.md), customerNo: [String](TopLevel.String.md)): [Customer](dw.customer.Customer.md)
+  - : Creates a new Customer using the supplied login, password, and a customerNo. If the customerNo is not specified,
+      the system automatically assigns a customer number based on the customer sequence numbers configured for the site or organization. An automatically assigned
+      number is guaranteed to be unique, but is not guaranteed to be sequential. It can be higher or lower than a previously created number. As a result, sorting
+      customers by customer number is not guaranteed to sort them in their order of creation.
+      
+      
+      The method throws an exception if any of the following conditions are encountered:
+      
+      - A Customer with the supplied Login already exists
+      - A Customer with the explicitly provided or calculated customer number already exists.
+      - The Login is not acceptable.
+      - The Password is not acceptable.
+      - The system cannot create the Customer.
+      
+      
+      
+      A valid login name is between 1 and 256 characters in length (not counting leading or trailing whitespace), and may contain only the
+      following characters:
+      
+      - alphanumeric (Unicode letters or decimal digits)
+      - space
+      - period
+      - dash
+      - underscore
+      - @
+      
+      
+      
+      Note: a storefront can be customized to provide further constraints on characters in a login name, but it cannot remove any constraints described above.
+      
+      
+      A valid CustomerNo is between 1 and 100 characters in length (not counting leading or trailing whitespace). Commerce Cloud Digital recommends that a CustomerNo only
+      contain characters valid for URLs.
+      
+      
+      If customers are created using this Script API call then any updated to the customer records should be done through Script API calls as well.
+      The customer records created with Script API call should not be updated with OCAPI calls as the email validation is handled
+      differently in these calls and may result in InvalidEmailException.
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - login - The unique login name associated with the new customer and its profile, must not be null. If login is already in use, an exception will be thrown.
+    - password - Customer plain customer password, which is encrypted before it is stored at the profile, must not be null.
+    - customerNo - The unique customerNo can be null, the system will then automatically assign a new value. If provided explicitly,  the system will make sure that no other customer uses the same value and will throw an exception otherwise.
+
+    **Returns:**
+    - customer The new customer object.

+- static logoutCustomer(rememberMe: [Boolean](TopLevel.Boolean.md)): [Customer](dw.customer.Customer.md)
+  - : Logs out the customer currently logged into the storefront. The boolean value "RememberMe" indicates, if the customer would like to be remembered on the current
+      browser. If a value of true is supplied, the customer authentication state is set to "not logged in" and additionally the following session data is removed: the customer
+      session private data, the form status data, dictionary information of interaction continue nodes, basket reference information, the secure token cookie. If the value is set
+      to false or null, the complete session dictionary is cleaned up. The customer and anonymous cookie are removed and a new session cookie is set.
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - rememberMe - Boolean value indicating if the customer wants to be remembered on the current browser. If a value of true is supplied, the customer authentication state  is set to "not logged in" and additionally the following session data is removed: the customer session private data, the form status data, dictionary information of interaction  continue nodes, basket reference information, the secure token cookie. If the value is set to false or null, the complete session dictionary is cleaned up. The customer and anonymous  cookie are removed and a new session cookie is set.

+### processProfiles(Function, String, Object...)
+- static processProfiles(processFunction: [Function](TopLevel.Function.md), queryString: [String](TopLevel.String.md), args: [Object...](TopLevel.Object.md)): void
+  - : Executes a user-definable function on a set of customer profiles. This method is intended to be used in batch processes and jobs,
+      since it allows efficient processing of large result sets (which might take a while to process).
+      
+      First, a search with the given parameters is executed. Then the given function is executed once for each profile of the search result.
+      The profile is handed over as the only parameter to this function.
+      
+      
+      The search can be configured using a simple query language, which
+      provides most common filter and operator functionality.
+      
+      For a description of this query language, see the [queryProfile(String, Object...)](dw.customer.CustomerMgr.md#queryprofilestring-object) method.
+      
+      The callback function will be supplied with a single argument of type 'Profile'. When the callback function defines
+      additional arguments, they will be undefined when the function is called. When the callback function doesn't define
+      any arguments at all, it will be called anyway (no error will happen, but the function won't get a profile as parameter).
+      
+      Error during execution of the callback function will be logged, and execution will continue with the next element from the
+      result set.
+      
+      This method can be used as in this example (which counts the number of men):
+      
+      
+      ```
+              var count=0;
+              function callback(profile: Profile)
+              {
+                  count++;
+                  dw.system.Logger.debug("customer found: "+profile.customerNo)
+              }
+             CustomerMgr.processProfiles(callback, "gender=1");
+             dw.system.Logger.debug("found "+count+" men in customer list");
+      ```
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - processFunction - the function to execute for each profile
+    - queryString - the query string to use when searching for a profile.
+    - args - the query string arguments.

+      Note, that some system attributes are not queryable by default regardless of the
+      actual value type code.
+      
+      
+      
+      The following **operators** are supported in a condition:
+      
+      - `=`Equals - All types; supports NULL value (`thumbnail = NULL`)
+      - `!=`Not equals - All types; supports NULL value (`thumbnail != NULL`)
+      - `<`Less than  - Integer, Number and Date types only

+      - `<=`Less or equals than - Integer, Number and Date types only
+      - `>=`Greater or equals than  - Integer, Number and Date types only
+      - `LIKE`Like - String types and Email only; use if leading or trailing  wildcards will be used to support substring search(`custom.country LIKE 'US*'`)
+      - `ILIKE`Caseindependent Like - String types and Email only, use to support  case insensitive query (`custom.country ILIKE 'usa'`), does also support wildcards for  substring matching
+      
+      
+      
+      Conditions can be combined using logical expressions 'AND', 'OR' and 'NOT'
+      and nested using parenthesis e.g.
+      `gender = {1} AND (age >= {2} OR (NOT profession LIKE {3}))`.
+

+      
+      The query language provides a placeholder syntax to pass objects as
+      additional search parameters. Each passed object is related to a
+      placeholder in the query string. The placeholder must be an Integer that
+      is surrounded by braces. The first Integer value must be '0', the second
+      '1' and so on, e.g.
+      `querySystemObjects("sample", "age = {0} or creationDate >= {1}", 18, date)`
+      
+      
+      If there is more than one object matching the specified query criteria, the
+      result is not deterministic. In order to retrieve a single object from a sorted result
+      set it is recommended to use the following code:
+      `queryProfiles("", "custom.myAttr asc", null).first()`.
+      The method `first()` returns only the next element and closes the

+      statements.
+      
+      
+      Example:
+      
+      A map with the key/value pairs: _'name'/'tom\*', 'age'/66_

+      If the customer search API is configured to use the new Search Service, these differences apply:
+      
+      
+      - Search may match and return documents with missing (NULL) values in search fields, depending on      how the query is structured, potentially leading to broader result sets. For example, a query like      `custom.searchField != "some value"`also returns documents where `custom.searchField`is NULL — whereas in relational databases, such documents are excluded.
+      - Newly created customers might not be found immediately via the search service, and changes to existing      customers might also not be in effect immediately (there is a slight delay in updating the index)
+      - Wildcards are filtered from the query (\*, %, +) and replaced by spaces
+      - LIKE and ILIKE queries are executed as fulltext queries (working on whole words), not as substring searches
+      - LIKE queries are always case insensitive
+      - Using logical operators may change the execution of LIKE/ILIKE clauses to exact string comparison, depending on how they are combined
+      - Using logical operators may result in degraded performance, depending on how they are combined
+

+      The following types of attributes are not queryable:
+      
+      - _Image_
+      - _HTML_
+      - _Text_
+      - _Quantity_
+      - _Password_
+      
+      
+      Note, that some system attributes are not queryable by default regardless of the
+      actual value type code.
+      
+      
+      
+      The **sorting** parameter is optional and may contain a comma separated list of
+      attribute names to sort by. Each sort attribute name may be followed by an
+      optional sort direction specifier ('asc' | 'desc'). Default sorting directions is
+      ascending, if no direction was specified.
+      
+      Example: `age desc, name`
+      
+      Please note that specifying a localized custom attribute as the sorting attribute is
+      currently not supported.
+      
+      
+      It is strongly recommended to call `close()` on the returned SeekableIterator
+      if not all of its elements are being retrieved. This will ensure the proper cleanup of system resources.

+      If the customer search API is configured to use the new Search Service, these differences apply:
+      
+      
+      - Search may match and return documents with missing (NULL) values in search fields, depending on      how the query is structured, potentially leading to broader result sets. For example, a query like      `custom.searchField != "some value"`also returns documents where `custom.searchField`is NULL — whereas in relational databases, such documents are excluded.
+      - Newly created customers might not be found immediately via the search service, and changes to existing      customers might also not be in effect immediately (there is a slight delay in updating the index)
+      - Wildcards are filtered from the query (\*, %, +) and replaced by spaces
+      - LIKE and ILIKE queries are executed as fulltext queries (working on whole words), not as substring searches
+      - LIKE queries are always case insensitive
+      - Using logical operators may change the execution of LIKE/ILIKE clauses to exact string comparison, depending on how they are combined
+      - Using logical operators may result in degraded performance, depending on how they are combined
+      - The search returns only the first 1000 hits from the search result
+
+
+    **Parameters:**
+    - queryAttributes - key-value pairs that define the query.
+    - sortString - an optional sorting or null if no sorting is necessary.
+
+    **Returns:**
+    - SeekableIterator containing the result set of the query.

+- static searchProfiles(queryString: [String](TopLevel.String.md), sortString: [String](TopLevel.String.md), args: [Object...](TopLevel.Object.md)): [SeekableIterator](dw.util.SeekableIterator.md)
+  - : Searches for profile instances.
+      
+      
+      The search can be configured using a simple query language, which
+      provides most common filter and operator functionality.
+      
+      For a description of this query language, see the [searchProfile(String, Object...)](dw.customer.CustomerMgr.md#searchprofilestring-object) method.
