    Allow Generate / Adv Generate
    Check this check box to enable the Generate and Advanced Generate actions within sales order entry for any type of sales order. These actions allow you to copy lines from one order to another. The Generate Credit Lines action is normally used for credit notes and sales return notes; whereas the Advanced Generate action is normally used for sales return notes only.
    For credit notes and sales return notes, lines on the original transaction are copied to the credit note or sales return note to obviate the need to retype the information. This is also useful for normal sales orders.
    The Advanced Generate action enables you to use a control desk filter and form to find the original order to copy from.
  2. These fields control if sales orders or sales return notes can be entered manually for this sales type for transactions for goods, charges, services or non-inventory, for example if they are ticked manual entry is prohibited for that type. Specify this information:
    Prohibit Goods Manual Entry
    The prohibit goods manual entry.

    The prohibit non-invy manual entry.
    Reprocess After Entry Stage
    Indicates whether or not the line of the transaction should be automatically reprocessed at the entry stage before progressing to the next processing stage. The next processing stage may be acknowledge or generate invoice, depending on how the stages are set for this sales type. If the user selects a line specific action from the Action > Line menu, then the Reprocess Line action is automatically called before processing the selected action. If the user selects a transaction specific action from the Action menu, then Reprocess All is automatically called before processing the selected action.
