Sales Order
When you receive a purchase order from your customer, you enter it as sales order document in MixERP.
Purchase order, prepared and sent by your customer, contains a list of items, number of units, and agreed-upon price.
Once you accept a purchase order sent by your customer(s), you will then need to perform additional steps to deliver the goods and collect the sales money, which are known as sales delivery and receipt respectively.
For Accountants
A sales order entry does not create any associated GL entry in the transaction tables.
