You will be prompted to select which customer/order type (Wholesale or Retail) you are creating, then based on your selection, you will be able to pick from the relevant customers.
E.g. if you select the Wholesale/Consignment Order Types, you will only be able to raise the order to customers assigned as Wholesale +/ Consignment 'Type' customers.
If you select the Retail Type, you will only be able to raise the order to customers assigned as Retail 'Type' customers.
With the retail option, you will be prompted to select whether the order will be VAT applicable and how the calculation will be made. You will have the following options:
As Retail VAT is inclusive of the Total RRP for B2C Orders, the VAT calculation on your retail orders will follow this logic accordingly.
The form will populate with the default information and type entered in the Customer record.
Addresses and Contacts: They pull from the Customer record. They can be amended directly on the order if your system settings allow you to do so.
