<h2 id="faq">FAQ</h2>

<b>What is the standard sales fulfilment flow?</b><br>
Quotation → Sale Order → Delivery Note → Sale Invoice. Stock moves on delivery; accounts post on invoice approve. You can skip quotation or create a direct sale invoice when no order is needed.

<b>Which sale documents post to accounts?</b><br>
Sale Invoice, Credit Note, Sale Debit Note, Advance Tax Invoice, and Advance Credit Note post journals on approve. Sale Order and Quotation do not post to accounts until invoiced.

<b>Where do I configure pricing and credit limits?</b><br>
Open <a href="#/sales/sale-settings">Sale Settings</a> for pricing screens, credit limits, sale types, and module behaviour. Day-to-day entry rules are in <a href="#/sales/sale-settings-config">Sale Settings (config)</a>.

<b>How do returns work?</b><br>
Create a <a href="#/sales/sale-return-order">Sale Return Order</a>, receive goods with a receipt note, then issue a <a href="#/sales/credit-note">Credit Note</a> linked to the return order or original invoice.

<b>Where do I find receivables and collection reports?</b><br>
Use <a href="#/sales/reports/customer-reports">Customer Reports</a> for statements and outstanding, and the main <a href="#/sales/reports/">Sales Reports</a> hub for aging, collections, and trade receivables.
