Quotes & orders
Use Sales for Price Quotes, Customer Orders, and Repeat Bills. Open it from Products & Stock → Selling ▾.
Before you start
- Medium+ license for full sales workflows (see tiers)
- At least one customer and product
- Currency and payment terms set up (or create them in the form)
Steps
1. Open Sales
- Go to Products & Stock.
- Open Selling ▾ → Price Quotes or Customer Orders.
- You should see title Sales and tabs Price Quotes, Customer Orders, Repeat Bills.
- Use Back to Inventory anytime to return.
2. Create a price quote
- On Price Quotes, click New Price Quote.
- Choose Customer / Partner (required) — search or + Create New Customer.
- Set Currency (required) and Payment Terms (required) (+ Create New Payment Term if needed).
- Set Quotation Date (required) and optional Expiration Date.
- Optional: tick Tax Inclusive (Prices entered include tax).
- Under Products / Order Lines, search a product → + Add Product Line; set quantities and prices; remove lines with ✕.
- Check Subtotal and Total Amount.
- Click Save Quotation.
3. Work with quote actions
On a quote row:
| Button | Result |
|---|---|
| Edit | Change the quote |
| Approve Order | Turns the quote into a Customer Order |
| Print PDF | Printable quote |
| Delete | Removes the quote |
4. Manage customer orders
- Open the Customer Orders tab.
- Search: Search by SQ/SO reference or customer...
- Click Filters next to the search box to narrow by Date range, Order Type (Regular Sale / POS Sale), and Product Category (matches if any line item is in that category). The button shows a dot when filters are active — use Clear Filters to reset.
- Click Export to Excel to save the currently visible (filtered) list as a spreadsheet.
- Click Details for Sales Order Details.
- From the list or details you can:
- Delivery Slip — a signed proof-of-delivery document, with a "Received by / Signature / Date" block for the customer to sign
- Packing List — the same item list without the signature block, for whoever is physically packing the shipment
- Both require a shipment to already be confirmed for that order — if none exists yet, you'll be told to confirm one first
- Under Invoice Payments, click Record Payment when the customer pays; watch Paid: and Open Balance:. A payment amount can be less than the full balance — partial/installment payments are normal and the order stays open until it's fully paid.
5. Repeat bills (subscriptions)
- Open Repeat Bills.
- Optionally select an order and click Create From Selected Order.
- Use Create Due Bills Now when schedules are due.
- Pause / Resume rows as needed.
What success looks like
- Quote saved with a reference
- Approve Order creates a customer order
- Delivery / packing PDFs open
- Payments reduce open balance
