Options

  • Orders can be part delivered and part invoiced.

    If the customer is willing to accept deliveries of goods and allow goods that are not in stock now to be placed on back order, then you can select this option.

  • No Partial deliveries or invoices

    If the customer stipulates that they will only accept delivery of the order if the order is complete, then select this option. In this case the order can only be delivered/invoiced is sufficient stock is available for all line items on the order.

  • Part deliveries accepted but on invoice when complete:

    If the customer is willing to accept partial deliveries of goods, but require that only one invoice is issued covering the total of all deliveries, or the total order, then select this option.

  • No back orders:

    If the customer is willing to accept delivery of whatever goods are in stock but will re-order any goods not delivered, then undelivered products or back orders need to be cancelled.
