Set down payment as the order processing method

You can set order processing with down payment at three levels within Profit.

You set the default order process for the environment in the logistics settings. You can alter this setting for a sales contact. Furthermore, you can alter the setting in a specific sales order so that it differs from the setting from the sales contact (of if this is empty, from the logistics setting).

To set down payment as the general order process and to specify the 'Down payment percentage':

Go to: Order Management / Management / Settings.
Go to the tab: Order Management.
In Down payment percentage, enter the percentage that you want to use as the default for calculating the down payment for an order. You can alter this in the order. The field must be filled but it can be 0.0%.
Select Down pay, delivery after down payment in Processing order if you want to set this as the high level default.
Click on: OK.
Save the change.

Set the sales contact with the default order process of 'down payment':

You can set a sales contact so that deliveries are only made after a down payment has been received. You can also set this for the environment using the logistics settings but if you have configured another order process there, you can alter this for the sales contact.

Go to: Order Management / Sales / Sales contact.
Go to the tab: Invoicing.
Select Down pay, delivery after down payment for Processing order.
Click on: OK.
