Order Processing/Invoicing Software from Dexter + Chaney

Spectrum's Order Processing module provides a complete operation for order entry, picking, confirmation, and invoicing of customer sales for both future delivery and over-the-counter sales. It improves efficiency, decreases processing time, lowers administrative costs, and reduces invoice lag time-which may improve cash flow. The highly flexible order entry process easily handles stock and non-stock items, partial shipments and back orders, special orders, drop shipments, discounts, and credit memos.

After an order is entered, a sales order and picking sheet can be generated, along with a packing list and shipping labels. When shipments are made, confirmed orders automatically create invoices. Once the order is confirmed and the invoice is printed, Accounts Receivable is automatically updated.

Order Processing is integrated with the Inventory Control module to provide complete information about the availability of items for sale, with online tracking of committed orders and backorders. Integration with the Sales Analysis module provides flexible reporting about all sales activities.

The Scale Interface module also integrates with Order Processing. Tickets from Scale Interface for customer sales can be sent to Order Processing, where an invoice is created that includes summarized information about the ticket. Summary options include the choice of having up to 8 tickets per line item or a separate ticket on each line.
