Quick Sales Inquiry

Quick Sales allow users to efficiently enter a sales transaction without having to allocate items or specify shipping information. Quick Sale transactions do not affect inventory and are not tied to other functional areas. The purpose of this page is to view Quick Sale transactions.

(lightbulb) 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 layout. Sales Order attributes are not included in the help documentation.
