Sales Orders: Payments and invoicing
Once an order is in motion, you get paid and keep your books straight. Start with how an order's revenue, discounts, and tax flow to your accounting software. Then record payments and apply store credit, collect and refund payments through PayPal, refund buyers on their sales channel, and generate invoices, packing slips, and the accounting transaction.
