Example
At a homeware store XYZ, a customer would like to buy a kitchen table from the display. At the point of sale, it turns out that there are no other available resources of this product in the store’s warehouse. The customer does not want to buy the product from the display, so she decides to order it from another store. In order to issue a sales order, the operator selects the buttons [Add] → [Order] on the list of sales orders and quotes. Next, he adds the item Kitchen table and defines the pickup point as Store to Door Delivery. Since the customer does not have an account in the store, the operator selects the buttons [Pickup Point] → [Store to Door Delivery] → [Add Address]. After filling in the address and saving changes, the operator fills in remaining fields in the document, without changing the Undefined customer.
