Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert a sales order before fully delivering the goods?
Yes. You can adjust the quantities on the generated invoice to reflect what was actually delivered. The sales order stays converted — so keep track of any partial deliveries manually or through notes.

Can I convert the same sales order multiple times?
No. Each sales order can only be converted once. For recurring orders, copy the sales order and convert the copy.
