Create and submit a sales order

From the wholesaler module you have the option to create sales orders. A sales order has two steps:

• Either from the sample book, showroom, or via mail or via B2B Ecommerce, you will enter all the products that the customer wants (if they come via B2B ecommerce it is the customer himself who will carry out this process). At this point, you have the possibility of printing the sales order, the possibility of printing a catalog with images of the order and more information, the possibility of exporting an excel of the order and the possibility of exporting the images.
• Once you are able to start sending stock (either immediately or after a period of time), you will be able to register and send one or more delivery notes with this stock.
