The Sales Order module is designed to allow a company to perform split shipments from the same order. You can create invoices in a number of different ways and many companies may never perform a split shipment. However, there are many companies in which split shipment on a customer order is a critical piece of their business.



So you can flag individual line items on an order to be included on a newly created invoice or not. Clicking the Convert To Invoice button will selectively convert just the line items that are flagged as Ship / Invoice Ready. Line items flagged as Ship / Invoice Ready are automatically highlighted in bold blue formatting via FileMaker 9 conditional formatting.



Many of the options that are available in an invoice module are also available in the sales order module.

Key Features Of The Sales Order Module
