Sales orders

Orchestrate orders, fulfillment, and delivery with real-time data.

What it is

Sales orders for nonprofits

Many nonprofits sell or distribute goods: gift shop merchandise, publications, program materials, or supplies delivered to partner agencies. NonProfit+ sales order management, built on Acumatica, handles order entry through fulfillment across multiple warehouses, giving your team real-time data on availability, allocation, and delivery.

Orders can be split across warehouses, inventory allocated by rule, credit checked automatically, and replenishment triggered when stock runs short. Workflows by order type handle status changes, notifications, and alerts, so orders don't stall.

  • Fill orders from multiple warehouses with real-time availability.
  • Commit to accurate ship dates with available-to-promise calculations.
  • Run complex pricing and discount policies, and keep automatic discounts off promotional prices.
  • Process returns, exchanges, and replacements in a structured workflow.

Frequently asked questions

Can orders be filled from more than one warehouse?

Yes. Orders can be split into shipments based on availability and cost. Partial shipment balances are tracked, and backorders are managed automatically.

How does available-to-promise work?

It shows projected supply and demand on each order line and identifies the earliest date the full quantity can ship, so staff can give accurate delivery dates.

Can sales orders trigger purchasing?

Yes. Sales orders can generate or link to purchase orders, hold until goods are received, and create drop-ship orders that go straight to the recipient.

Does it handle sales tax exemption certificates?

Yes. Through Avalara Exemption Certificate Management, you can collect and manage exemption certificates for qualifying buyers, including nonprofits, government organizations, and higher education institutions.
