For the items you wish to invoice, you either click Auto Fill with SO Qty or Auto Fill with Assigned Qty. When AUTO FILLING there are a two main options:

  1. Auto Fill SO Qty – This will just load the number of pieces left to ship into the packed qty. If the customer ordered 8 pcs in size 8, then it will load 8 pieces in size 8. If 3 of those had been invoiced already, it would load 5.

  2. Auto Fill with Assigned Qty - will only work if you have an integrated warehouse. And you use the warehouse to arrive a shipment. As part of the process you can ASSIGN the received goods to the Sales Order’s This then becomes the ASSIGNED QTY.

Or you can manually enter the number in the box yourself. 

6. Click Generate Invoice at the bottom of the screen

- The second option is to never invoice the items. Tick a box.

If you want a back order make sure you tick Put the Remaining Items on Back Order
