Sales Order Process

Please see below the process for raising Sales Invoices to Customers and the associated
training videos and manuals. The relevant Agresso access will be required for this process. Please

SALES ORDER PROCESS

1. Sales Invoices that are sent to Customers must be raised though the Agresso Web version
as a Sales Order.
2. Once a Sales Order is raised it must be approved (each Cost Centre has their own approver), once
approved the Sales Order will convert into a Sales Invoice overnight.
3. The Sales Invoice is sent out to the Customer by Sales Ledger (finance-commercial@glasgow.ac.uk) section
within the Finance Office.
4. When the order has successfully converted into to a Sales Invoice a copy can be printed if required.
