SalesOrders

Order management across every channel you sell on — the largest module in the suite.

Orders is the largest module in the suite, and the one most other modules touch. An order is where a sale becomes a commitment: stock is reserved against it, invoices and purchase requests are raised from it, and its fulfilment is what the customer actually experiences.

Orders. Every stage from Draft to Completed with counts and value, what is waiting on a person, and where the orders came from — refreshed every 30 seconds.

What it does

Orders, in the product’s own words

  • Create, edit, approve, confirm and cancel orders
  • Reserve and release stock as orders are confirmed
  • Fulfilment, shipment, delivery and returns
  • Sales channels: connect, test, sync and read the logs
  • Raise invoices and purchase requests from an order
  • Coupons, approval rules and order reports
  • Send an order by email, WhatsApp, chat, print or PDF

Before you start

What has to be in place

  • Products and warehouses in Inventory — an order cannot reserve stock that has no shelf to come off.
  • Approval rules, if orders above a value should stop for a person rather than confirm themselves.
  • Sales channels connected and tested, if you sell anywhere other than in front of you.

Worth knowing

  • Stock reservation is the sharp edge of this module. If availability looks wrong, look for confirmed orders nobody cancelled before you look at Inventory.
