Creating Sales Orders
Use Sales Order Maintenance (7.1.1) to create a sales order, which includes three sections.
• Header. Contains the general terms of the order, as well as default values for line items.
• Line Item. 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.
• Trailer. Contains tax, shipping, and order status information for all line items.
If you use sales quotes, Sales Quote Release to Order copies information from the quote into the new sales order. See
Releasing Sales Quotes.
