Transactions: Overview
Quickly and easily select or enter work, contact, and financial details to create any new transaction seamlessly, via simple walk-thru prompts that automate the process of creating Offers, Invoices, Consignments, and eight other transaction types. At left, Contacts and Works are found and selected for a new Invoice transaction. Additional information, including financial details, is entered directly on the Invoice form.When creating a transaction, Pro makes instant updates to all related records, so double entry is never necessary. For example, when an Invoice record is saved, the sales status and Financials for the work(s) are automatically updated, as is the Accounting and Collection section of the Contacts record. And when any work is shipped, its location is also automatically updated.

Transactions: Offers
Using the transaction walk-thru prompts, Pro can make a formal Offer of selected works, which is saved to a contact's history. As with any transactions, a formal document can be generated in Microsoft Word with a single click. An Offer can be converted to an Invoice automatically, adding the accepted works with and previously entered accounting details. As always, all related records are updated automatically. Additionally, one can generate an offer of works via an email that saves to a contact's record.
