Paying Your Consignors

To pay consignors, print a Consignor Payout report.  Payout reports can be printed for single consignors or all consignors and can be printed for all dates or a date range.  For example, consignor reports for everyone that payments are owed or just a report for a single consignor sales in the past week can be printed.

 

When a Consignor Payout Report is printed, a prompt will be received asking if the consignor should be marked as paid.   If Yes is selected, then the consignor will be marked as paid and the consignor paid date will be stored.  The sales that have been marked as  paid will not appear on any future Consignor Payout reports.  A copy of the Consignor Payout report should be given to the Consignor along with payment.

 

To help identify sales that have not yet been settled with the consignor, use the Consignor Not Paid view.
