Need to enter orders from an earlier date? Not a problem!<\/p>\n

inFlow automatically uses today’s date when you fulfill and pay an order. So before you begin: create and complete your sales order<\/a> \/ create and complete your purchase order<\/a>. Then, you’ll need to change the following dates:<\/p>\n\n

Order Date & Invoiced Date<\/h2>\n

Both Order Date<\/em> and Invoiced Date<\/em> are located at the top right of your sales order\/purchase order.<\/p>\n

Please note that, without shipping turned on, inFlow’s order date and inventory movement date are the same, so you should set this date to when the items were deducted from your inventory.<\/p>\n\n

To set the order\/invoiced date: <\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. If it doesn’t already show the date you want to change, click on the arrow button beside Order Date<\/em> or Invoiced Date<\/em> and switch it to the one you want.<\/li>\n
  2. Enter the date here or use the dropdown calendar to select a date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    \"Order<\/div><\/p>\n\n

    Shipped Date<\/h2>\n

    This only applies to sales orders if you have shipping turned on. This should be set to the date when the items were shipped out (removed from inventory).<\/p>\n\n

    \"Shipped<\/div><\/p>\n\n

    To set the shipped date:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    2. Click Shipping Details\u00a0<\/em>at the bottom.<\/li>\n
    3. Enter in the shipped date (and other information such as carrier\/tracking number if you wish).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      Received Date<\/h2>\n

      This date needs to be set on purchase orders only. This is the date the inventory was received into your stock.<\/p>\n\n

      \"Received<\/div><\/p>\n\n

      To set the received date:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Click on the Receive<\/em>\u00a0tab on your purchase order.<\/li>\n
      2. Set the Receive Date<\/em> for each item.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Date Paid<\/h2>\n

        This applies both to purchase orders and sales orders. It marks the date you received payment \/ paid your vendor.<\/p>\n\n
