The process to transfer a quote to an order in Microsoft Dynamics GP is as simple as selecting Actions > Transfer, and then selecting the option to either transfer the quote to an order or an invoice. When transferring a quote, the new order or invoice will remain in the same batch ID.
However, a unique batch ID for orders and/or invoices can be established by following the steps below:
- Go to Sales Transaction Entry (Sales > Transactions > Sales Transaction Entry).
- Select a quote.
- Click on the blue arrow next to the document number.
- Under Transfer to Order next to Batch ID, click the lookup icon and select the batch ID to be used for the for the sales order.
- Under Transfer to Fulfillment Order\Invoice next to Batch ID, click the lookup icon and select the batch ID to be used for the sales invoice.
- Note: If a new Batch ID needs to be created, click on either of the Batch ID blue hyperlinks, enter the information for the Batch ID, and save.
- Once you have selected your Batch ID(s) for the orders and/or invoices press OK.
Once this setup is complete, the newly created sales orders or invoices will be in the Batch ID assigned.
