The customer_entity table contains records of all registered accounts. An account is considered registered if they sign up for an account, regardless of whether they ever complete a purchase. Each row corresponds to one unique registered account, as identified by that account’s entity_id.

This table does not contain records of customers who place an order via guest checkout. If your store accepts guest checkout, see how to account for guest orders for those orders.
