Customer Customer Service Sales Orders/Invoices Tab

For the Other Action Menu options (press F9 or the Other Actions Menu on the Button Bar) see Customer Other Actions Menu.


For user profiles such as Customer Services that need to view the [ Customer | Detail | Customer Service | Sales Orders/Invoices ] screen, they need to be given the User Permission to Open Sales Summary but without the ability to view Sales Summary screens in their User Profile.


This screen displays sales orders, including cancelled sales orders and returns. Sales orders still waiting to be processed in the Sales Invoice Manager have a mauve background in the grid, complete orders have a grey background and cancelled orders a red background. To cancel or delete an order see How To: Cancel a Sales Order.

  • Inv Code: sales invoice codes can be entered into this field, but not dragged and dropped. Pressing the BtnGoX.jpg button will populate the grid with all items related to that sales invoice.
