How do I sell Miscellaneous Items?

To sell Miscellaneous Items you will need to create a Sales Order. To do this, go to:

Sales > Create Sales Order

• Ensure the ‘Type’ in the top right is set to ‘Miscellaneous’
• Enter the Invoice and/or the Delivery Account codes for the customer you are selling the part(s) to by typing in the Alpha or clicking into the […] button to open up a Customer search window
• Add any additional order details you require, such as a Customer Order Reference, Due Date, Carriage, Sales Rep, etc
• Ensure the ‘Depot’ is correctly set
• In the large Description box type the text that you wish to appear on the invoice for this item
• Select the appropriate Misc Type – this will control which Nominal Codes are updates by the sale as well as the VAT rate and Mark Up % if set
• Enter the cost price for the item – if a Mark Up % is set up, the price will automatically be calculated though this can be manually overwritten
• Repeat this process for as many miscellaneous items as required – it is advised to divide miscellaneous items in multiple items opposed to a single line so there is a definitive breakdown of prices on the Invoice – this also helps if any items are required to be credited
• Once each item required is added to the order, you can print a Quote or Order Acknowledgement
• Additional details that you would like to show on the Invoice can also be added on the ‘Invoicing’ tab in the ‘Invoice Text’ field
• When necessary, click the ‘Place’ button to place and save the Order
• You will then need to despatch the items by selecting the items to Despatch using the ‘S’ tick boxes on the right hand side of each Misc items and then clicking the ‘Despatch’ button
• Items can then be invoiced accordingly
• Once completed the Sales Order will now show as completed
