Multiple despatch notes - how to issue just one invoice?

[didster33]

Hello,
I was wondering if anybody could help me.
The company I work for currently do the following:
- put a sales order in Sage
- despatch items when they are ready (not always in one load)
- many despatch notes created - noted on system
- invoices are then created based on each despatch note , so invoice totals are £0 and the final invoice amended with all the correct order details and the full amount all on one invoice (as customers want an invoice for the full total).

As you can see this creates a lot of work and amending through Sage.
Does anybody know a quicker way this can be done so it is all on one invoice so it will save less time?

Thanks

The easy way to get rid of all this work is to stop doing it.

If you don't set the invoice values to zero, you don't have to calculate a new invoice later.

If you want to cut down on the amount of paper you could:-
alter an invoice layout so that you could print all the invoices for the month as one document.
send all the invoices as emails
