Sales Orders

Made2Manage offers several options for entering sales orders into your system. Sales orders may be generated from initial information, from an associated quotation, a job order, or a previous sales order. You save time by avoiding redundant data entry tasks.

Once you enter and confirm a sales order, Made2Manage automatically queues any buy items in purchasing based on the order due date and reserves stock items from inventory. If the sales order sells items directly from inventory, Made2Manage automatically queues the items in shipping. In addition, a job order can be created to spur shop floor production. As a result, your sales order has triggered the fulfillment process in just a few keystrokes.

You can easily process more complex orders. An order item can have up to 999 releases, each with separate due dates and quantities. You can apply a separate price discount to each item and use variable or fixed price schedules. You also have the functionality to split shipments.

Made2Manage helps polish your image with your customer by giving you clean, profes­sional order acknowledgments. Before you print an acknowledgement, you can view the detail that will appear on the customer’s copy. You can also add memos and other comments. These order acknowledgments can be e-mailed or faxed to your customers.

A full complement of standard sales reports is available to you to help drive the sales process. Reports include order status, month-to-date and year-to-date sales, the order backlog, prospect summaries, salesperson performance plus several others.

• Jump-start the fulfillment process - a confirmed order can trigger purchasing, reserve inventory items needed for the order, and create a job order.
• Ship orders with quantities different from the sales order by specifying an allowable range.
• Track partial or split shipments more effectively with the split shipment box.
• Gain flexibility by creating various ship dates and prices by checking the multiple release box.
