What is a Sales Order?

What is a Sales Order?

A sales order is your record of what a customer is buying from you. Every time you sell a firearm, ammunition, accessories, or a service, you create a sales order to track the transaction.

A sales order records:

• Who is buying (the customer)
• What they are buying (products and quantities)
• How much they are paying
• When the sale happened
• The status of the order (draft, confirmed, delivered, invoiced)

Why Use Sales Orders?

Instead of just ringing up a sale and handing over a receipt, CloudFFL's sales orders give you:

• Automatic inventory updates — When you deliver the product, stock counts go down
• Linked invoices — The invoice is created directly from the sales order, so amounts always match
• Complete history — Look up any past sale by customer, date, or product
• Reporting — See your total sales, top products, and revenue trends
