Sale Orders

Overview

The Sale Orders screen shows you all the sale orders that have been recorded in Readysell.

By default, only outstanding (orders and quote) for the current site are shown when you enter the screen. 

You can click on a sale order in the list to view its details. 

The product status indicates the current state of the product and affects where in the system it can be used.

If you have multiple product codes of the one product, keep the main product code if it is an office brands product and set the other products to have a status of Obsolete so that they will not reorder and set the 'Ignore status' ticked on the setting tab on.
Alternatively, merge the products into the master product.

Product Status is now colour coded is some cases as per the key shown above. Readysell has also made our new conditional formatting feature all users. So you can add additional colour rules to lists views and transaction lines yourself. See Changing the formatting on lists using appearance rules

Purchase runs for Back Orders Only should include products that are on sales backorder, no matter what their status is as long as you have ticked the checkbox on the purchase run 'Include Indent Products' and all other checkboxes within the purchase run that may meet your criteria eg Include Obsolete Products etc.


So if you want to only purchase a product by sales backorder.

If the flag 'Always Purchase Back Order' is ticked, this means even if the back order purchase is on an outstanding purchase order, order it again.

Please note

When setting the status to Indent the Ignore Status field will be flagged as True. So when an automatic product update is run the status of the product will not change.

On all Purchase Run Types, other than Back Orders Only, the tick box/flag is greyed out for Include Indent Products.

If you need to include Indent products in your existing and new purchase run sets, change the Purchase Run Type to be Back Orders Only, turn on the tick for 'Include Indent Products' and then change the Purchase Run Type back to be what was originally set as.  Save your changes.  This will make sure that Indent products are then always included in your purchase runs.

You cannot Complete a sales order using a tender of Credit Card if you have integrated eftpos as the completion could fail and cause the tender to be invalid.

Copy To Contract

Copy the customer, products and prices on this sale order on to a contract and to be able to update an existing contract.

Example of use: The user wants to update the contract for a customer. Only one contract exists for the customer. So the system can identify which contact price is to be updated. The user enters a sale or quote. Then clicks on the "copy to contract" button. The system detects that only one contract exists for the customer. So a new contract is created. The changes from this quote are updated to the new contract.  There are now 2 contracts for this customer.  Should a product be on both of those contracts, the system will give best of pricing out of the two contracts.

If no contract had existed for the customer. A new contract would be created.

If more than one contract existed for the customer. Then a new contract is created.
