Unit: Sales – A/R


Topic: Sales Process

At the conclusion of this exercise, you will be able to:


 Perform the steps of the sales process
 Discuss sales documents’ effects on inventory and accounting
 Run the open items list

In this exercise, you create a sales order for one of the customer
master records you just created. Then you change the sales order
to accommodate customer requests. You deliver the items to the
customer then create an A/R invoice for the delivery. When the
customer pays your company, you create the incoming payment
document.
Later, you perform each step of the sales process again while
viewing the effects of each document on inventory and
accounting.
