Hi,

You can use JS to restrict the Customer Look up field from displaying contact or account records.

function onload(executionContext) {
//get customer field control
var customerId= executionContext.getFormContext().getControl("customerid");
function filterCustomerLookup() {
//Set the Customer field to display only account records.To display the contact record, simply replace account with contact.
customerId.setEntityTypes(["account"]);
}

customerId.addPreSearch(filterCustomerLookup);
}

The following is an article with a similar issue for reference.
