Creating a Resell Order Without a Quote

There are two methods for creating a resell order in OASIS. Users may convert a quote to an order, and they may create an order from the Orders page without a quote in the system. This documentation will discuss creating a resell order without a quote in the system. However, for more information on converting a quote to a resell order, click here.

To complete this process, users must first set up the resell company, manufacturers, and customers (including sales tax accounts). For more information on these set up steps, select the links provided.

1. Navigate to the Orders page.

2. Select "File." Note: alternatively, select the  button to create a new resell quote.

3. Hover over "New," and then select "Create Resell Order." 

4. The "Select Workgroup" window will appear.

5. Select the needed workgroup.

6. The "Question" window will appear, asking if the order should default to release status or hold status.

7. Select "Release" or "Hold," depending on user needs.
