Sales transactions include Sales Orders, Returns, Price Adjustments, and Quotes. When Sales Orders and Returns are posted the General Ledger, Customer Balances, and Inventory On Hand Balances are updated. When Price Adjustments are posted the General Ledger and Customer Balances are updated but inventory is not impacted. When Quotes are posted they are converted to Sales orders. This page lists each unique Sales Transaction. The purpose of this page is to view, add, edit, remove, and post Sales Orders, Returns, Price Adjustments, and Quotes. Additionally, users can Mass Update to apply / remove hold codes, reprice orders and quotes, update sales order attribute values and update the Status/Workflow of multiple transactions at once, as well as allocate order items.
This list view also contains columns for each Attribute that is set up for the 'Sales Order' attribute type. Because these are user defined, they are not included in the default view but can be added a saved column layout. Sales Order attributes are not included in the help documentation.

| Toolbar Icons | Description |
|---|---|
| Column Filter Show/Hide |  Toggles between displaying and hiding a filter row in the grid under the column headers. The filter row will be displayed by default if the Quick Column Filter is also implemented in the page. When enabled, this will allow users to type in text to filter by a specific column. |
| Delete |  Deletes the selected record(s). When clicked, users will be prompted with: "Are you sure you want to delete the selected records?". Click "OK" to confirm, or "Cancel" to return without deleting. WARNING: Records cannot be recovered once they are deleted! |
| Excel |  Exports the contents of the grid to an Excel file that will automatically download. The contents that export are those that are visible to the user. Therefore, if the user has filtered the view, or excluded columns, only the contents in the grid will be exported. |
| Favorites |   Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline.
|
| Group By Show/Hide |  Toggles between displaying and hiding a row in the grid above the column headers to enable grouping by one or more column(s). Once displayed, users may drag and drop column headers to group by a specific column.

| Notes |
Notes are used throughout the application to add additional details to Master Files and Transactions. Transactions and Master Files that support Notes store the text of the note in one or more 'Note Types' as a way to classify/organize notes. |
When clicked, all the Reports that launch from the Print Dialog that are assigned to this page, and that the user has rights to (if Report Data Access is enabled) are displayed.
| |
| Quick Column Filter |  Used to filter across all columns in the grid. When the user types text into the Quick Column Filter text box, the grid's Filter Row will be automatically hidden. The text in the Quick Column Filter text box automatically replaces any existing Filter Row filters. The results of the data immediately refresh as you enter text. |
| Refresh |  Re-queries the contents of the grid/page based on the Search Options or the default values for grids that do not support Search Options.
|
| Saved Layouts |  Displays the column layout lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select a previously saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, forget/delete a layout and/or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the layout, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Save Layout icon and save the changes to the column layout. The visibility of the Filter Row is also saved with a saved layout. The new layout can also be set as the default. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). Default layouts can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default layout is selected. Please note that existing saved grid layouts will display the Filter Row as hidden by default. |
