A sales order is the customer’s confirmed order: what to deliver or do, when, and at what price. From here you move to shipment and invoice.

How to open: SalesSales orders

Why use sales orders

  • track which orders are open, in progress, or fulfilled
  • plan delivery / picking
  • create a shipment or sales invoice from the order
  • link the order to a quote or webshop / channel order

Where an order comes from

  • converted from a quote
  • created manually
  • from the webshop or sales channel (if integrated)

What you can do

  1. Open Sales orders.
  2. Filter by status, customer, date.
  3. Open an order — review lines, amounts, delivery addresses.
  4. Edit lines / status if your permissions allow.
  5. Create a shipment when goods go out or are handed over.
  6. Create or link a sales invoice when you can bill (directly or via shipment).
  7. Mark the order complete when everything is fulfilled and invoiced.
