Summary
Sales Order Processing may be used to produce an invoice to a buying group account. The goods are recorded against the customer account whilst the invoice is recorded on the buying group account.
More Information
- Create and assign your buying group to your customer.
- Create and process a sales order for the customer.
The invoice produced will use the buying group as the invoice account whilst the delivery address will display the customer details.
When payment is received from the buying group, allocate the payment to the invoice using Sales Ledger Receipts.
 | The items sold on the order will be displayed in the customer CRM to allow reports to be produced on sales to the customer. The invoice will be displayed in the buying group CRM. |
Sales Order Document Formats
If this is the first time you have produced invoices for a buying group you may need to contact our support team to add an additional line into your Sales Order Processing invoice formats to allow the buying group reference to be printed. Contact your Platinum dealer or our support team on 0116 230 1500 or by using our website support contact page for advice if you wish to add this field to your invoice formats.
