Quotes, orders and invoices

Follow a sale from quote to sales order to invoice.

Omnir handles the paperwork of a sale: a quote (your offer), a sales order (the confirmed purchase) and an invoice (the request for payment). They are linked to each other and to the opportunity.

Following payment

Use the invoice’s status to follow it, for example from sent to paid. Your administrator sets the values in every dropdown, so the options in your workspace may differ from the examples below.

Tip:Run an “outstanding invoices” report every week: it lists unpaid invoices and their due dates so nothing slips.
