Parts Shipped for Trial

We handle this by setting up two lines on the order. The first line is @
$0.00 and is linked to a sample job. The second line is for production
parts and shows a piece price and is linked to a production job. By also
having 2 separate jobs, you can track the cost of the samples and the
production separately and you can also ship against each item. Hope this
answers your question.

Subject: [Vantage] Parts Shipped for Trial


We ship products to customers for testing occasionally. After the testing
is finished the customer may be billed for all, some or none of the parts
depending on the nature of the test.

How do we keep track of this? I'm told that entering a sales order but not
billing it creates problems. Can't you ship but not bill the invoice?
Would project tracker help?

Any suggestions?

Why not change the billing terms according to the testing
period. If the testing is for 45 days then change the terms to 45 days. If
the customer doesn't use all the parts then do an RMA. Everyone should be
happy.
