POS for Manufacturing: Efficiently Manage Order, Invoice and Receipt

It may not be an overstatement to say that all orders sometimes do not make it to invoice stage. And not all invoices get payment receipt. The reason for this lapse is best explained by either the customer or the sales team.
But the business owner needs to have an accurate number of transactions amongst the three stages: Order, Invoice and Receipt before atempting to get an explanation from any of the groups: customer or sales team or both.
Thus, for many manufacturing business owners, an age-long concern on their minds is knowing how many orders were generated, how many of those orders were converted to invoice and in turn how many invoice got receipt.
In the same way, they are also interested in knowing the amount involved in each of the three transactions: order, invoice and receipt. Please read Benefit No. 1 below to know more about this.
Meanwhile, the good news is that Ana Arm POS for Manufacturing helps your business keep track of your customers' journey from order through invoice to payment receipt.
Managing orders, invoices and receipts through automation from ANA POS will help SME manufacturing businesses enjoy the following benefits stated below.

The main purpose of an invoice is to request payment from the customer.	While the main purpose of a receipt is to verify a payment.
The proof of purchase is an invoice.	While receipt is a proof of payment.
