If your vendor is shipping directly to your customer, use inFlow’s Dropship PO (Purchase order) to add customer information to the purchase order and avoid duplicate data entry.

This feature is only available on inFlow Cloud for Windows.

How to create a dropship PO

Essentially, what you can do is create a purchase order directly from your sales order, which includes your customer’s information.

1. Create a sales order (Main Menu > Sales > New Sales Order)
2. Fill in your customer details and ordered items.
3. Click the Copy button in the top toolbar, and from the drop-down, choose Create Dropship PO.

Yes, it’s that simple. inFlow will duplicate your sales order as a purchase order and slot your customer’s shipping information into the shipping information on the purchase order.

Simply save it and send it off to your vendor for fulfillment. At this stage, you can choose to complete both orders or save and leave them open until you’ve been notified that the shipment has been sent out and received.
