Manage Layaways, Work Orders, Deliveries and Phone Orders

Ways our customer order management features can improve your business

Customer Orders

Manage sales of items not taken immediately from store.  You can attach a customer, change status, set a due date, define a handling type, print pick-up slips and add notes.  Customer orders can be transferred to the register so that payment can be made and ‘cash and carry’ items can be sold on the same receipt.

Special Orders

Manage sales of items not in stock that need to be special ordered from vendor.  Special order items are listed on a separate inventory screen so that they can be quickly added to vendor purchase orders.  Special order items are tagged through the ordering and fulfillment process, so that they can be treated differently than standard items.  When receiving a vendor shipment with special items, the system triggers an alert and links the special item received to the original order, allowing you to inform the customer that the special item is now available for pick-up or delivery. 

Store Pick-up, Delivery and Shipping of Orders

Phone and orders in progress can be designated for different delivery methods – in-store pick-up, local delivery or third party shipment. You can add notes as well as assign to an employee. You can change the status of an order as its being processed. For in-store pick-ups, you can set expected pick-up date and time.

Service/Repair Department

Run a repair and services department with MicroBiz. You can check in an item to be serviced, attach a customer, assign to an employee, set an estimated completion date, add parts and services, manage order status, collect a deposit and print full page quotes and estimates.

Quotes, Estimates and Invoices

You have the ability to print full page quotes, estimates or invoices from the order record – depending on your need.  You can also choose whether to print order notes on the document.
