Manage Commercial Orders

54.2.2.7 Main Data

The Main Data tab holds relevant information regarding the selected order line; it defines various properties as follows:

Logo: Enable this flag to indicate that the current order line is related to a Logo. Once enabled, the Main data, Notes and Logos tabs will be adjusted for defining a contractual logo.
Note: This option is unavailable for "prepaid" orders, as logos are paid as scheduled.

Description: Enter a short description that describes the event for which the order line is being defined. The description identifies an order line during its booking, scheduling and invoicing.

Compensation account: Set the ledger account for posting transactions related to the current order line. This account is used even if compensation accounts are set for the order line and customers/agencies.
Note: Refer to Money's "Available invoicing modes" chapter for more info on invoicing accounts.
Note: Ledger accounts are set in "Configuration > Settings > Invoice Archives > Chart of accounts".

Invoice Description: Optionally, select a pre-configured invoice description to be displayed (on invoices) instead of the description above.
Note: Invoice descriptions are in the Configuration > Invoicing > Invoice Descriptions section.

Free: If enabled, the event will be transmitted without charges. This option is enabled; for example, use the order line only to keep a register of the scheduled performances of an event.

Runs: Specify the maximum number of times the logo is intended (allowed) to be broadcasted.

Unit Price: Set the cost to be allocated for the broadcast of each run of the logo.

Amount: The total amount to be received for the current order line. This value is automatically calculated by multiplying the unit price by the number of runs.

Cost per action: Optionally, specify the agreed cost for each action the customer desires (e.g. calls from viewers). Cost-per-action is useful for orders related to pay-per-lead advertising (e.g.TV Sales); this value (e.g. $40) is obtained by dividing the unit price (e.g. $200) by the desired actions number (e.g. five calls). 

Once all the above information is provided and applied (by clicking on the <Apply> button),  the overall amounts will be displayed at the bottom right of the current Lines > Main Data area (order amount versus lines amounts).

Note: If the "paid in instalments" option is enabled for the order, overall amounts will not be displayed as the individual line amounts are not managed.
