Creating a Sales Order

Create Sales Orders Manually

The administrator(s) must create a sales order after they have received a purchase order (PO) from the customer.

Prerequisites:

Post Conditions:

After you follow the tutorials below, TIGA will create a new sales order record. After the sold items have been shipped, the administration team can then invoice the customer. If you create a sales order for a sale made in the U.S, the relevant information in the new sales order record (i.e. shipping address and price) will also be tracked in the Avalara database.

Once you’ve created a sales order, you must add sales order line items. Sales order line items are the components of a sales order that contain details of the corresponding sales items. See also, Sales_Order_Line_Items and Creating a Sales Order Line Item.

To create a sales order:

  1. Within the CRM application, click Sales Orders on the table bar.

  2. Click the plus sign to create a new sales order.

  3. Type or select the correct information in the Create New Sales Orders. See, Sales Orders and Line Items.

  4. Click Create in the lower-right corner of the Create New Sales Orders window.
