Creating an order yourself
Record an order a customer placed by phone, in person, or in a chat your agent didn't handle.
Updated
Orders start from the customer's contact:
- Open Contacts, open the customer, and press Create order.
- Who it's for: This contact, or Someone else with their name and, if you like, a phone or email for this order only.
- Currency: every line in an order uses one currency. It starts as your business's default currency (Settings → Agent); adding a catalog item sets it to that item's currency.
- Source conversation (optional): link the chat the order came from, if there is one.
- Items: search your catalog and press Add variant, or press Add custom line for something that isn't in your catalog, with a description and a unit price. Set each line's Quantity.
- Press Review order, answer the order questions that apply to these items (required answers can be added later), and press Create order.
The order opens as Draft and Unpaid. A required question you left empty marks it Missing answers; fill it in later with Edit answers.
An order holds 1 to 100 lines, each with a quantity from 1 to 10,000.
