To main Reasons for this.
First on is to help you stay
organized by creating notes when you make changes or add to delivery board and
other tasks that you just do on the Customer Quote/Order. A great example how
this might help. A Customer came into the store in the spring. She was building
a large customer home it took fourteen months to build. When we delivered the
product to her fourteen months later the total bill was about $24,000.00. She
called upset, said she had the original order in her hand with a total of
$22,000.00 and that she was not paying $24,000.00. The salesperson said 'OK' let
me look at why. He then found the Customer Order in the computer and looked at
notes. In the notes it stated something like this:
Edited Model VGRC364BSS Viking, 36" Professional
