Preparing a Detailed Sales Quote
Article Summary
This article explains how to do a Detailed Sales Quote, under the Detailed Entry Menu.
As a reminder, the Detailed Entry screen
brings the Desktop transaction entry screen "experience" into a Cloud/Web
browser interface. Users who need the full power (or who are used to a Desktop
interface) will welcome this functionality and find it familiar.
You can
also easily "Save" any transaction before posting to the Business System AND the Detailed Entry allows for Sales Credits to be created.
Note: If there is no Detailed Entry option available to you, please contact Support@PlusSoftSolutions.com for assistance.
Reminder:
- You can also use the Quick Entry menu option (menu above) if you prefer.
- The Quick Entry option is often used for quick, "in front of Customer" transactions. It does not offer the option of Sales Credits.
