Combination order batch screen

Toolbar:

Keys: CTRL+I

Use the 'Combination Orders' transaction to enter new and/or renewal orders for a common customer. Say a customer has sent you a renewal to their existing subscription plus an order for a special report, paid for with a single check. You could enter the two orders separately using the 'Renewal' transaction for the subscription and the 'New Order' transaction for the report, but you would need to mentally split the check up to assign the proper amount to each order. Using the 'Combination orders' transaction you can see both orders on the same screen and can see how the payment is distributed between them.

You may also find the 'Combination Orders' transaction useful for entering orders for multiple subscriptions from an agency where they sent you the names and addresses of several subscribers, paid by a single check. You can enter all of the subscription orders using a single combination order transaction containing multiple new and renewal orders.
