From the Sales Order Entry Body tab, you can choose from several inquiries related to the current order or customer. For example, while in an order, you may need to view the customer's accounts receivable balance, inquire about recent sales, or view product pricing. You can also drill into product and customer information. For example, while in an order, you may need to check a product's price sheet, UPC information, or view a customer's credit control settings.
