Point of Sales Overview

Point of sales workflow applies to over-the-counter (OTC or customer facing) sales and commonly settled/paid by Cash or EFTPOS tender types. 

Accepting deposits and payments against sale orders

Overview

We handle layby and eway orders as sales orders with a exiting payment. We also handle back orders for walk in customers that want a product we don't normally stock in the same way. The payment may be partial or may be the full value of the order.

Procedure

Part or full payment for a sale order can be made via the Pay button to represent a deposit (20% of the order value) or balance payments on ordered goods or the full percentage. https://readysell.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=43483179

You cannot Complete and invoice the sales order at any time until the order is fully paid, therefore, whilst the order is only part paid, the system thinks the customer has not yet got the stock on the order but will allocate stock against the order as it is received in.
Once all the stock is available and full payment is received, you can then Complete and invoice the order.
