Sell Orders overview

How sell orders work in Restock.

A sell order records the sale of one or more inventory items to a customer. You can also create a sell order for a walk-in customer by skipping customer information.

Statuses​

Sell orders use one of these statuses:

  • Complete — The sale is finished (default for new orders).
  • Pending — The sale is not yet finalized.
  • Cancelled — The order was cancelled.

Key concepts​

  • Entries — Each item sold is a sell order entry with its own sale price. Profit is calculated from the item's cost and sale price.
  • Customers — Optional. You can link an order to a customer or leave it as a walk-in sale.
  • Payments — One or more payment methods per order. Split payments must sum to the order total.
  • Grouping — Entries can be viewed and displayed grouped by attributes such as model, condition, color, storage, and similar.
  • Financial view — A spreadsheet-style view that shows purchase cost, sale price, and projected profit for selected items before you save the order.

Financial view​

Use Financial view when you want to review margins before completing a sale.

  • Purchase is the item's buy order cost plus the latest actual repair cost, when one exists.
  • Sale is the sale price entered for the item on the sell order.
  • Projected profit is sale price minus purchase cost.

Projected profit is a planning number. It does not include refunds, payment processing fees, disputes, taxes, or other post-sale adjustments.
