Occasionally items on sales orders will be back-ordered and their stock won’t arrive for a few days. Sometimes even an item will be special ordered once it is saved onto a sales order. It would be convenient for a Sales Rep to get a notification (Internal Notification) when an item for their customer has arrived and is ready to be shipped. This module links line(s) between a Sales Order and Purchase Order – and when the item has been received into the system, a notification automatically gets sent to the sales rep of the linked sales order. You can also Link an MO (Finished Goods/Raw Material) with PO/SO.

• The linking of the Orders for the common Items and the same Store can be created.

Use the Order Linker module to create and edit order links in the system.
