  3. Total Price (Low to High)
  4. Total Price (High to Low)
  5. Qty (Low to High)

  • Clicking any value in the dropdown will sort the item lines of the sales order accordingly.

5. Exchange Rate App Config: Manage Currency Exchange Rates per day**

If the App Config is ON:

The same will be the case with the Exchange Rates while processing Purchase Orders.

*Exchange Rate Centre maintains the history of exchange rates on a daily basis if app config is on.

The auto-sending of Invoices to Customers provides the user with the ability to schedule the time at which Invoices are automatically sent to them.

  • If this setting is on, the system will auto-send Invoice emails every day to the Customers at the time specified in the App Config. This will only send Invoice emails created on the same day that was not sent manually.
  • You can disable this feature per customer by disabling this setting on the customer level. (Note: This is helpful for the situation where order tracking information is entered at the later stage after marking the order as shipped.)

Note: This is applicable when the ‘Auto email ship confirmation on Pack & Ship’ config is off.

  • The Time has to be entered in HH: MM format in the ‘Daily Invoice Emails Time‘ config.
