Sales Module — Invoicing, Payments, Orders & Quotations

The Sales Module is the heart of your billing workflow. It covers the entire sales cycle: send a Quotation to your customer, convert it to a Sales Order when confirmed, and then generate a Sales Invoice when goods are delivered. Record partial or full payments, handle returns with credit notes, and share professional invoices via WhatsApp or PDF. Stock automatically decreases with every sale, GST is auto-calculated, and outstanding balances are tracked per customer. Whether you are a retailer doing quick cash sales or a wholesaler managing credit accounts, everything is handled here.

Overview

  • Professional GST Invoices Create branded invoices with auto GST calculation, HSN codes, and multiple payment modes in seconds. Stock automatically decreases with every sale.
  • Complete Payment Tracking Track partial and full payments, record payment receipts, and monitor outstanding balances for every customer. Never lose track of who owes you money.
  • Quotation → Order → Invoice Workflow Send quotations to customers, convert accepted quotes to sales orders, and then to invoices — no re-entry of data at any stage. This saves time and eliminates errors.
  • WhatsApp & PDF Sharing Share invoices, quotations, and receipts instantly via WhatsApp or download as professional PDF documents. Your customers get their bills within seconds.

A Quotation is a price proposal — it does not affect stock or accounts. A Sales Order is a confirmed order that helps you plan fulfillment but also does not reduce stock yet. A Sales Invoice is the final bill that deducts stock, updates customer balance, and counts toward your revenue. The typical workflow is: Quotation → Sales Order → Sales Invoice, but you can skip steps and create a direct invoice if needed.
