Sale Order Activity

Sale Order Activity is a quick way to log the same kind of event against many sales orders: a call, a dispatch, a reminder. Each line names an order and an activity, and Save adds it to that order's header activities.

What it is for​

Each sales order has an activities list of its own, opened from its toolbar. This screen fills it for many orders in one go.

The one rule people get wrong: Save edits and saves each named order. If an order cannot be saved at that moment (for example it now breaks a rule of its own), the activity cannot be added to it.

If something looks wrong​

  • Save refuses with a Sales Order message - the order named on a line refuses its own Save; fix the order first.
