AnyOrder
(Levels II, III) Screen Display: Creating Billing Statements
One
important.aspect
of owning a business is sending out monthly billing statements.
AnyOrder Levels II and III include a comprehensive billing
engine. A
billing statement itemizes all of the customer's invoices and payments
and calculates their balance due. AnyOrder provides a number
of different functions dealing with billing statements. At any given
time, you can prepare a statement and determine how much one or more of
your customers owe. One of the nice features built into AnyOrder,
not available with other programs, is that all unpaid invoices are marked
with an asterisk. It makes it very easy for you and your customer
to track payments.

AnyOrder (Levels II & III): Inventory
Tracking. . .
AnyOrder
keeps.track
of your inventory so you know how many products are available at any
given
time. This feature is available on AnyOrder Level II and
III. It tracks returns, damages, and promotional copies. It
gives you the cost of beginning and ending inventories, average
discount
on copies sold, and gross profit for each product. It also tracks
all consignment activity, a particularly valuable function if you sell
some or all of your products on consignment.

Keeping Track
of Payments (AnyOrder Level I, II & III)
The.Mark
Paid Feature in AnyOrder is one of the functions built into the program
which sets it apart from other general business and accounting
programs.
It is designed to duplicate how people work in a real world
situation.
(The Mark Paid feature is available in all levels of the
program.) While such a method might not be important for large
businesses with teams
of accountants, small businesses want to keep track of individual
invoices--and
whether or not they are paid. A time-tested method of keeping
track
of invoices is to write (or stamp) "paid" on top of the
invoice.
Most computer software programs, however, don't use that system, rather
relying on a separate payment register which is detached from the
invoices.
The Mark Paid feature, however, keeps things simple by printing "PAID"
in the Payment Box on the Invoice Screen and keeping invoices and
payments
together. You find it intuitive, easy to use, and a wonderfully
simple
way of recording and tracking payments.
