More detailed guides on configuring domains & registrars in WHMCS can be found in Domains Configuration and we have prepared a video tutorial demonstrating how to configure a registrar @ http://www.whmcs.com/tutorials.php?i=7

Per-Domain Registrars

With WHMCS it is possible to specify which registrar to use on a per-domain basis, this enables you to leverage multiple suppliers for different TLDs and therefore reduce costs. For example you may wish to use Registrar A for .com,.net and .org domains, but Registrar B for .co.uk, .org.uk and .net.uk.

To achieve this first activate and configure the different registrars under Setup > Domain Registrars followed by the domain pricing under Setup > Domain Pricing. Then select the different registrars to be used from the Auto Registration dropdown menus. The selected registrar will then be used to register that particular TLD automatically when a client places and order and pays the associated invoice.

Automatic Renewal

Clients can renew a domain at any time via the client area, or when the auto-renewal option is toggled on a renewal invoice will be automatically generated per the Invoice Generation settings under Setup > Automation Settings. WHMCS can renew domains at the registrar automatically once the renewal invoice has been paid, simply enable General Settings > Domains > Auto Renew on Payment.
