the follow part of the Revenue Cycle:
Order Entry:
The company's sales staff is made up of four sales representatives and the vice
president of marketing. Sales staff members take orders from customers on their
iPads and then email the orders to the main office. At the main office, Peggy, the
receptionist, creates a sales back-order file on her laptop. In this file, she enters
the customer account number, salesperson number, product numbers and
quantities, and the requested delivery date. The customer number is used to
access the customer's record, which includes the customer name and address,
and is used to complete the sales order. The product number is used to retrieve
the item description and price. A sales order is generated and sent to the credit
department from the back-order file.
