The Sales app handles the full sales cycle: quotation, sales order, delivery and invoice.
Create and send a quotation
- Open Sales and click New.
- Select the Customer. Their address, price list and payment terms are filled in automatically.
- In Order Lines, click Add a product, choose the product and enter the quantity.
- Click Send by Email to send the quotation as a PDF, or Preview to see what the customer will see on the portal.
Confirm the order
When the customer agrees, click Confirm. The quotation becomes a sales order. If the products are tracked in stock, a Delivery smart button appears at the top of the order.
Invoice the order
- Click Create Invoice.
- Choose Regular invoice, or a Down payment (percentage or fixed amount) if you ask for an advance.
- Check the draft invoice and click Confirm.
Invoicing policy
Each product has an Invoicing Policy:
- Ordered quantities: you can invoice as soon as the order is confirmed.
- Delivered quantities: you can invoice only what has been delivered.
Tip: Enable Sales ‣ Settings ‣ Online Signature and Online Payment so customers can accept and pay the quotation directly from the email.
