Order Entry
The actions required to register a customer's order into a company's order processing system are known as order entry. Internally, this information is usually categorised as a sales order once it has been entered. The sales order's information is then utilised to arrange all of the actions required to complete the customer's purchase, which may include materials procurement, production, warehousing, picking, shipment, and billing. The order entry function is often handled by the sales and marketing departments. An order management system is a single, unified platform that aids inventory management, automates the order-to-cash cycle, and improves team communication. The software automatically stores orders, keeps track of inventory levels, and generates the necessary sales orders as well as a sales invoice.
