Overview
Advanced Sales Order Processing is a Nolan Business Solutions add-on developed to enhance the Sales Order Processing module in Microsoft GP.
In summary, it provides many additional features for Sales Order Processing, such as additional validation of the Debtor Purchase Order number, single click printing from the Sales Entry window, and additional sorts and restrictions.
Also included is our Recurring Invoices module, which extends recurring of Sales Order Processing documents to Invoices. Recurring documents are used in circumstances such as monthly maintenance billing where the invoices need to be spread over 12 months.
Recurring Invoices also provides the ability to create copies of existing SOP documents. This would be useful where similar, but not identical, invoices need to be raised regularly.
Distributed Invoices is another feature of Recurring Invoices. This is different to recurring invoices as a distributed invoice is not posted multiple times. Instead, when the invoice is posted it is split up in to the desired number of documents in the Sales and General Ledger. How the document is split is fully configurable.
Each of the features provided by the Advanced Sales Order Processing module will be detailed in the rest of this document, along with the installation and configuration of the module.
