Sale Invoices

Overview

A sales invoice represents the financial charge to a customer for one or many shipments. A single sales invoice can cover a single shipment, a group of shipments related to the same sale order, or all shipments to a single customer in a single month.

Prices and values: The prices and values on an invoice come from the source shipment(s). These cannot be changed. You can add a non-stock line to an invoice to cover charges such as freight, but you cannot add or change stocked lines on any invoices. Stocked lines are controlled at the shipment level.

Invoice dates: By default, the sales invoice date is set to the same as the shipment date. You can change this date if necessary - for example, you can give a customer extended trading terms by moving the invoice date to the next month.

Related shipments: The Shipments tab on an invoice shows all shipments covered by that invoice. A single invoice can contain many sales shipments, but each shipment can only be on one invoice.

 Reverse

Reverses the invoice but not the shipment. The shipment will need to be dealt with accordingly (either reinvoiced or reversed etc).
This button is not usually available to most users due to issues it can cause if used. If you are requiring this button, please contact Readysell.

 Credit

This is used to raise a credit from an invoice trying to credit all lines on the invoice. It will create a sale shipment with all lines from the original invoice allowing you to make any changes, add reasons for credit and remove off lines you do not wish to credit.

If you are using the Credit action button from within a shipment and the sales order does not have a status of POSTED then you can decide as to whether the products you are crediting you require them to go back to allocated on the linked sales order.
