Working with Delivery Notes |
|
Topic: Sales
You use a Delivery Note (sometimes called a Packing Slip) to accompany what you physically deliver to your Customer. You can create a Delivery Note from a Cash Sale or Sales Invoice. The Delivery note is useful when you ship items on the same preceding Document by different methods or with different carriers. You can record who carried what items when on the Delivery Note. Equally the Customer can use this Document to check what delivered versus what they were sold by you.
IMPORTANT: The Delivery Note does not keep a tally with the preceding Document. There is no notion of an quantity delivered/shipped versus quantity remaining correspondence between the Delivery Note and the Cash Sale or Sales Invoice.
