How do you go about delivering a Sales order

There are two different stages of delivery within Katana.

When the items have been picked from your warehouse and packed for delivery, you should mark a Sales order (SO) fully or partially packed using the Pack all or Pack some... functionality. This adjusts the inventory levels for items included in the SO.

More precisely, both In stock and Committed quantities are decreased for items included in the SO. Packed and Partially packed statuses mean that items haven't been shipped yet so the SO will remain in the Open sales orders table.

If you want, you can skip the order's packing step and deliver the order without packing it before.

Mark a SO Delivered when you ship out the goods. You can deliver an order fully or partially using Deliver all or Deliver some... . This doesn't trigger additional inventory movements if the status is changed from Packed to Delivered, but If you change a Not shipped SO directly to Delivered, both In stock and Committed quantities are decreased for all items included in the SO.
