Sales Orders, Numbers, and IDs
Order Number: This value is a facility-specific number that monotonically increases starting at 0000000001. Order Numbers are customizable in Canix so that you can match your Order Number to your own internal invoicing processes.
ID: A globally unique identifier that is used for both internal and Canix support. This value does not change and is unique across your company. Our team uses this value to help troubleshoot any issues with a specific Sales Order, ensuring that we are referencing the correct report.
Manifest Number: This value is automatically generated when you create an Invoice via the Sales Order page.
Invoice Number: Tied to the Order Number this value can also be customized. Any changes made to the Order Number will be reflected in the Invoice Number.
Pick List
To expedite your workflow, Canix includes a Pick List on each Sales Order to assist you and your team in managing the sales process.
The Pick List tells the inventory fulfillment team which Packages to pull in order to complete the order. If you split Packages from a Sales Order, you’ll see the source Package and the new Package tag created in the list. Pick Lists also include Non-Cannabis Inventory.
You can access Pick Lists two ways:
- Navigate to Sales > Sales Orders
- Select a Sales Order you are creating the Pick List for, this will open the side panel.
- Navigate to the first line, Pick List
- Select Configure New Pick List
OR
- Navigate to Sales > Sales Orders
- Select a Sales Order you are creating the Pick List for, this will open the side panel.
- Select View Order Details
- Navigate to the first line, Pick List (scroll to the bottom of your Sales Order)
- Select Configure New Pick List
Configure New Pick List by determining what data you would like to be included on this Pick List by checking/unchecking boxes. Then select Submit to generate a new Pick List, it will open in a new window and provide the option to download as a PDF.
Note: Only line items with packages allocated will appear on the Pick List. Non-Cannabis Inventory will still appear on the Pick List if the option Non-Cannabis Line Items is selected.
Make a mistake or determine you need to make corrections to the Pick List?
Simply go navigate back to the Pick List section of the Sales Order and select, Pick List Actions:
- Configure New Pick List will allow you to make edits to the existing Pick List and generate a new one.
- Print or Save Pick List allows you to save or print the Pick List anytime after changes have been made to the Sales Order.
