Dispatching Sales orders
WBS offers two options when dispatching a Sales order
1-Dispatch as much or all of the sales order in one go and
automatically generate the invoice for the items picked.
Process:
- Show on a Sales Order picking list report what needs to be picked for the sales order.
- Enter the items actually picked and automatically generate the invoice.

2-Create a picking note possibly for part of the order
and progress it through multiple stages.
Process:
- Set up your own stages that a initial picking notes go through such as To pick, Picked,Checked,Courier arranged, Dispatched, Invoiced etc .
- Define the rules for each stage.
- Track the picking note through each stage.
- Review how many are at each stage.
- Finally send the invoice to the customer.

NOTE You need to tell the WBS system which process you plan to use.By default option 1 will be assumed. To change to Option 2 you need to go to menu Help-System settings and find option A21 "Use dynamic stages for dispatch process" and set it to Yes. This will automatically make the relevant columns visible and WBS will follow the dispatch process defined.
