There are many steps involved in creating quotes and sales orders and each needs to be straightforward. With Carillon’s Sales Management system, you can create quotes and sales orders all within one window. The Sales Order Entry window allows you to create quotes in several ways and instantly turn any quote into a sales order. From the Sales Order Entry window, you can even print pick tickets, have multiple ship tos and track shipments. For detailed orders, you can create customer and item notes as well as insert a drawn picture or photograph of the item, thus eliminating confusion over item type. Everything you need to create or modify a quote or sales order is located in the Sales Order Entry window.

A superior sales management system would not be complete without performance evaluation capabilities. Profitability reports can be generated for each customer, brand or salesperson so you can keep track of your best performers. You can also track communications between your sales staff and customers through tight integration with our CRM, all within Carillon ERP.
