Sales Order Document Layout
In QAD EE, a sales order document has three main parts, entered and printed in sequence:
Header
Contains the general terms of the order and default values for line items. Comments may follow, describing in more detail the terms or instructions associated with this order.
Line Items
Specifies a particular item being ordered, its order quantity, and price. Lists any exceptions to header information, such as a date or address that applies to only the line item and not the whole order. Comments may follow each line item, describing in more detail the item, its specifications, or packaging instructions. Each order can have many line items.
Trailer
Contains tax, shipping, and order status information for all line items. Freight can be calculated automatically on a bulk or unit basis. These charges are not subject to commission or discount, and may or may not be taxable.
Comments can be entered manually on quotes and orders or copied from preexisting master comments and modified as needed. Master comments are useful for storing standard information such as:
• Item specifications and quality requirements
• Item descriptions in other languages
• Export documentation and packaging instructions
Each master comment is identified by a reference code, type, language, and page number (up to 99 pages of text).
