By doing so, you can effectively keep track of the delivered and pending items or services. It's important to note that sales orders do not impact the general ledger. The sales order process involves various status indicators that help manage the entire lifecycle of a sales order. Each status represents a different stage in the order's progression, providing valuable insights into its current state and allowing users to take appropriate actions accordingly. ### **Creating a sales order** When entering details to create a sales order, you'll begin by filling in essential header-level information, such as the store, customer details, order date, and shipping information. Once the basics are set, you can proceed to add goods and services to the order, ensuring a comprehensive and accurate record of the transaction. This streamlined approach empowers you to efficiently manage sales orders and cater to your customer's needs with ease. {% hint style="info" %} To create a sales order, go to **Menu > Sales > Sales Order** {% endhint %} #### **Sales Order Header Fields**

After completing the header fields, address management, and adding items, click on the **"Save"** button to create a sales order. The system will automatically assign a unique number to the sales order in the format of SR-S000001, where "SR" denotes the sales store code and 1 denotes a sequential series. This number will be displayed on the top left corner of the page. Once this number is generated, it becomes a permanent identifier and cannot be altered. {% hint style="info" %} Use the convenient keyboard shortcut **(Alt+S)** for the "Save" action and **(Alt+N)** for the "Save and New" action {% endhint %} The new sales order will be created in the **Open** status. For more details on the sales order statuses, read [Sales Order Statuses](#sales-order-status). You can [print this sales order](#printing-sales-orders-via-print-service) once it is created using the **Print** button situated on the top right of the page. {% hint style="info" %} If duplicate items are added to the sales order, users will see an info alert to indicate that duplicate items have been added to the sales order. This alert is displayed as a div at the top of the screen and specifically identifies items that have multiple entries within the sales order. {% endhint %} ### Sales Order Statuses * **Open**: When a Sales Order (SO) is initially created, it is in the **"Open"** status, indicating that it is not yet finalized.

However, the release is subject to the condition that there are no restrictions on the items (if applicable). * **Partially Shipped**: If some items in the SO are back-ordered and yet to be shipped, the status becomes "Partially Shipped." * **Shipped**: Once all items on the SO have been shipped and the order is fully fulfilled, it enters the "Shipped" status. * **Closed**: The "[Closed](broken://pages/IhMSGQeR601AMUdWo2U1)" status is applied manually to sales orders where either part or the entire order is not intended to be fulfilled. Closed orders are restricted from any further actions. * **Cancelled**: The "Cancelled" status indicates that there are no items available on the order with an order quantity greater than zero. XoroERP also allows manually applying the "Cancelled" status. Cancelled orders are restricted from any further actions. {% hint style="info" %} The system also provides the ability to track the allocation status of the order which indicates the progress of the order in the warehouse or fulfillment department. For example - Allocated, In Picking, Picked etc. For information on the allocation statuses, read [Sales Order Allocation Statuses](#sales-order-status). {% endhint %} ### Create or Update Customer Address in Sales Order **Workflow:** **Step 1:** Enable the App Configuration **“Allow Option to Create/Update Customer Address in Sales Order, Estimate and Invoice Modules.”**

**Step 2:** Open the Sales Order, Estimate, or Invoice page and select a customer. In the Bill To or Ship To address dropdown, select **Create New Address** to add a new address.

**Step 3:** The address modal opens with existing details prefilled. Modify the details and save the address. Ensure that the postal code is valid to avoid invalid postal code alerts or errors while saving the sales order when the App Configuration **“Calculate Tax for Canada Zip Code”** is enabled. **Step 4:** Turn ON the **Set As Default** toggle if you want the address to be used for future transactions.

**Step 5:** The newly created address address becomes immediately available in the dropdown.

**Step 6:** Users can also edit the details of an already existing address and save the changes.

**Step 7:** To update the existing address in the customer record, open the address modal and select **Update in Customer** option.

{% hint style="info" %} **The Address Name field is editable only when creating a new address. The field remains read-only and cannot be modified when updating or editing an existing address.** {% endhint %} ### Show Balance Due Amount on Sales Order To provide better visibility into the outstanding amount on a Sales Order, XoroERP allows you to display the **Balance Due amount** directly within the Sales Order. The Balance Due represents the remaining amount after deducting the linked deposit amount from the total Sales Order amount. To display this value, users need to enable the **“**[**Show Balance Due amount on Sales Order**](/xoroerp-1/configuration/application/app-config/sales.md#show-balance-due-amount-on-sales-order)**”** app configuration.

When this configuration is enabled, the system calculates and displays the Balance Due as:\ **Total Sales Order Amount – Linked Deposit Amount**

When this configuration is disabled, the Balance Due field will not be displayed on the Sales Order. ### Show/Hide Deposit Refunded & Remaining Amount on Sales Order To provide greater transparency and control over financial details in sales orders, XoroERP provides you an option to show or hide the refunded deposit and remaining deposit amounts. * **Deposit Refunded** is the amount refunded on the linked Deposit to that Sales Order. * **Deposit Remaining** is the Deposit amount remaining after deducting the refunded amount from the Total Deposit recorded on that Sales Order. To show these amount, users have to enable the **"Show deposit and refunded amount in Sales Order"** app config.

When this config is on, the Deposit Remaining and Deposit Refunded amounts will be visible in the SO.

**Please Note:** * The Deposit Remaining and the Deposit Refunded amounts will only be displayed if they are larger than zero, ensuring that you're only presented with relevant information. * When a sales order is split, the deposit applied is split as well. * In cases where a deposit is split and the total amount of the new sales order generated as a result of the split is different from the linked amount, the Total Deposit Amount will be shown in brackets.

* The 'Deposit Refunded' and 'Deposit Remaining' amounts are reflected based on the Total Deposit amount, ensuring accuracy and consistency in your sales order management. ### Restricting a User from creating a Sales Order or performing Wave operations There are two ways to restrict a user from creating a sales order or performing wave operations: 1. **Access Manager** The access manager allows you to grant or restrict access to a user. To restrict a user from creating a sales order or wave, you can remove these access of the user. **How does it work?** * Navigate to the Access Manager module and select the user. * In the "Set Access Levels" section, choose the "Custom Option" * Uncheck the access for creating sales order and wave. * After the access has been modified, click on "Grant Access". * The user access will be modified and the user will not be able to create sales orders or perform wave operations. 2. **User Store Mapping** If a user is not mapped to a store, all the sales order functions like creating SO or modifying an SO will not be allowed with the un-mapped store on the SO. Only if the access is granted to the user by the user store mapping, the user shall be able to perform the SO process. You can remove the user-store mapping to restrict a user from creating sales orders or performing wave operations. **How does it work?** * Navigate to the User Store Mapping module. * Select the User from the dropdown menu. * In the Store Access section, you can see all the stores for which the user has access. * Click on the "Bin" icon next to the store to remove the store access for the user. If the un-mapped ship store is selected for a sales order, the user will not be able to do the following: * Create a Sales Order, * Create Wave, * Pick/Pack the Wave, * Ship an Order, * Void a Wave/SO Modify an existing Order If an attempt is made to process an order with the unmapped ship store, the user will be shown a message that the user doesn’t have access to the ship store. ### Printing Sales Orders via Print Service Sales Orders can be printed directly from the system using the Print option. When the app configuration **“Enable Xoro Print Service”** is enabled, additional options are available in the print pop-up while printing Sales Orders. * A **Send to Printer** toggle is displayed in the print pop-up. * When enabled, the **Print Requester** dropdown becomes available, allowing users to select a requester. * Once a Print Requester is selected, the print job is routed through the Print Service, and the Sales Order is added to the **Print Service Queue**.

If the app configuration **“Enable Xoro Print Service”** is disabled, the print pop-up displays only the standard options. * Users can select the reporting template and proceed with **Print Preview** or printing directly. * No additional options, such as **Send to Printer** or **Print Requester**, are available, and printing follows the default system behavior.
