The Sales functional area is used to store all Customer data and record all Sales transactions. The main tasks performed include maintaining customer data, manage customer price lists, importing and/or entering Sales Orders, and receiving and applying customer payments. The Sales functional area integrates with the Financial, Fisherman Accounting, Inventory, Load Management, and Sales Program functional areas. The purpose of the Sales Preference Page is to configure how these features work. From here, users can set defaults, identify which features are used, and how the enabled features perform.

Toolbar Icons	Description
Excel	Clicking the Excel toolbar icon exports the current contents of the grid to an Excel file that is automatically downloaded. The contents that export are only those currently visible. If the grid is filtered, only the filtered contents 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. Users must log out and back in before the pages will be visible in the 'My Shortcuts' tab.
Grid Layout	Opens the Saved Grid Layout menu that allows the user to select another saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to a grid, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Saved Grid Layout icon and save the changes to the grid layout and name the new layout. The new layout can also be set as the default, instead of the System View. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). The bolded view is the default view, which will determine the view will automatically display in when opened.

This is a single-select standard lookup that is required. It defaults to "No" and is always editable. If an item’s ‘Manage Items By’ property is set to “Units Only” or “Units and Weight”, NorthScope bases the over allocation validation on the quantity of allocated Units. If the item’s ‘Manage Items By’ property is set to “Weight Only”, NorthScope bases the over allocation validation on the quantity of allocated Weight. This preference applies to Orders, Invoices, Price Adjustments, and Returns. Yes: Users may over-allocate and no messages will be displayed.
