Enter Orders

Use this form to create Quotes, which do not create accounting transaction entries, then "Commit" the quote to create a Sales Order, which creates accounting transaction entries and reserves items being forward to Sales Order Fulfillment. You can create sales entries for Cash Only customers or On Account customers.

Cash Only Customers can purchase and pay for items, but revenue for that transaction cannot be recognized until the items are actually shipped. Therefore, an accounting entry is required at the time the order is submitted to record cash received and book the unrecognized/deferred revenue.

Note: For more information about the Sales Order module process flow, see Sales Order Entry Workflow.
