The Cash Sales option
Description

The Cash Sales option can be used to complete all the necessary transactions for a sale without having to make each posting individually. When you complete a sales order or invoice and use the Cash Sales option, Sage 50 Accounts adjusts your stock out, creates then updates an invoice and posts a sales receipt.
