This section provides answers to common questions about processing orders, controlling approvals and workflows, and transferring orders to logistics for shipping and further processing.
This is controlled by the payment method. With prepayment methods, the order is blocked by default until payment is received (e.g., when the order is manually marked as paid or balanced by a payment posting). If the payment method Invoice is selected instead, the payment indicator automatically switches to green and the order can be processed immediately. In addition, you can create a custom payment method that behaves like the Invoice method. This also allows orders to run through automatically with a green payment indicator, without any manual intervention.
Alternatively, you can manually set an order to "mark as paid in advance" directly on the document. This also sets the payment indicator to green and allows automated processes such as shipping or further processing to start, even if no payment has been posted yet. The option "mark as paid in advance" can also be passed directly via the shop, if manual setting in Xentral is not possible.
