The selling-side masters and controls to configure before you run Quotation → Sales Order → Delivery Note → Sales Invoice → Payment Entry in ERPNext.
35 checks · 7 sections
Quote-to-cash is the selling spine of ERPNext: a Quotation becomes a Sales Order, which flows to a Delivery Note and a Sales Invoice, and closes with a Payment Entry. This is a reference checklist of the masters and controls that make that flow behave — Customers, price lists, Pricing Rules, Selling Settings, payment terms, credit limits and taxes. Use it to sanity-check a new company setup or to review one that grew organically. Each item names the actual ERPNext doctype or setting so your team (or your implementation partner) can find it fast. Nothing here is a tick-box — it's the shape of a clean selling setup.

It runs Quotation → Sales Order → Delivery Note → Sales Invoice → Payment Entry. A quote is converted to a confirmed Sales Order, goods are shipped on a Delivery Note (drawing down stock), the customer is billed on a Sales Invoice, and cash is recorded with a Payment Entry against that invoice.
No — it depends on the 'Sales Order Required' (so_required) option in Selling Settings. Turn it on for order-driven businesses to force a Sales Order before delivery/invoicing; leave it off for over-the-counter or point-of-sale scenarios where you invoice directly.
Standard rates live in Item Price rows against a selling Price List. Automatic discounts and special rates are handled by the Pricing Rule doctype, which can target items, item groups, brands, customers, customer groups or territories, with quantity/amount conditions and validity dates.
Core ERPNext gives you the Sales Taxes and Charges Template and Tax Category. GST-specific templates and accounts (CGST/SGST/IGST), HSN codes and e-invoice/e-way-bill features come from the India Compliance app, which uses the company and customer GSTINs to apply intra- or inter-state tax automatically.
