 | 7. Reports |  |
The "Backlog" screen shows information about Sales Orders that have either not yet been shipped or have been shipped but are not yet invoiced. With this screen you can quickly review the shipping status for your pending orders—and determine what still needs to be done to finish them out.
Here are some tips for using this screen:
Expand the rows of information by clicking on the "+" sign to reveal lower levels of detail.
From the right-click menu you can generate shipping paperwork and also access the Sales Order itself.
If the "Show Prices" option is selected, an additional column showing the amount of the backlog, with Prices normalized to the Base Currency using the Currency Exchange Rate effective on the Order Date, will display. The total backlog will also be shown.
If the available quantity falls below zero, the value will display in red type.
