My invoice/order is gone, what happened? 

The Rackbeat system automatically archives invoices, orders, and similar documents once they are completed. By default, archived invoices and orders are hidden.

However, you can customize your filter settings in Rackbeat to display either archived items or all records. By adjusting the filter, you can locate any missing invoices or orders.

Using the "remember" button, you can save your filter settings so that your preferred configuration is set as the default.

The payment terms are missing from the PDF, why? 

If the payment terms are not appearing on the PDF, it could be related to the layout settings for the customer, order, or invoice.

To troubleshoot this issue, follow these steps:

  1. Check the customer's layout settings in Rackbeat. Navigate to the customer section and locate the layouts section. Make sure you have selected an appropriate layout for this specific customer.

  2. If no layout has been selected for the customer, choose a layout that suits their requirements. Ensure that the selected layout is also added to the corresponding order or invoice.

  3. If the layout is already selected for the customer, proceed to the next step. Examine the invoice or order to determine if the layout has been removed or not added to it. It's possible that the layout was added to the customer after the creation of the invoice or order, leading to its absence.

  4. If the layout has been assigned to the customer and the invoice, you should check in the layout settings whether the payment terms have been included. To do this, go to the user settings, then select "Layouts." To access the underlying layout, click on the name or number of the main layou

By following these steps, you can identify and resolve any issues with missing payment terms on the PDF for the customer's order or invoice.

When is my stock adjusted during a sale? 

In Rackbeat, stock adjustments occur during the sales process when handling shipments. When a product is picked and a shipment is completed, the stock is automatically adjusted accordingly.

Similarly, during the purchase phase, the same principle applies to receipts. The stock is adjusted when the receipt is processed.
