Configure the Ship To Comments on an Order

An overview on managing the ship to comments on sales orders

Acctivate gives you multiple ways and places to keep notes for each sales order. This includes a special section where you can save pre-written instructions that appear on a drop down list. The comments are designed to appear on your shipping documents. They are selected in the Instruction tab of the sales order.

Ship To Comments can be configured to whatever you choose appropriate for your business’ shipping instructions, reminders or other shipping comments.
