How to Create/Send Sales Orders

Sales Orders are a great way to both provide your customer with full details of the contemplated transaction as well as offering a way of tracking for inventory and the sales associate who initiated the order.

Once your customer approves the Sales Order, an Invoice and Purchase Order are then automatically generated.

In order to start setting up Sales Orders, follow the steps outlined below:

Information Fields to Address:

  • Select a customer from the drop-down list (or add a new one above the customer dropdown).
  •  Add the necessary amount of line items using the NEW LINE tab.
  • Select item(s) from the catalog dropdown. The dropdown will only populate if you have at least one item saved to your catalog. Otherwise you can add them as you go.

  • Adjust the quantity as needed for each item. 
  • Set the sales tax (if applicable). 
  • The Notes section is optional.
  • Enter the expected Delivery Date.
