The Transaction Lifecycle
ZeyOS follows a structured document flow. Understanding that flow makes it easier to move between modules:
Text
Sales side (Invoicing):
Quote -> Order -> Delivery -> Invoice -> Credit Note
↓
Payment <- Collections
Purchase side (Procurement):
Request -> Order -> Delivery -> Invoice -> Credit Note
↓
Payment
Recurring:
Contract -> generates -> Invoice
Each stage creates a linked transaction, so you can trace an invoice back to its quote or a payment back to the document it settles.
Not to be confused with
- Invoicing = sales-side documents.
- Procurement = purchasing-side documents.
- Payments = the money movement itself.
- Collections = follow-up on overdue balances.
- Contracts = recurring billing rules.
Recommended Reading Order
- Start with Invoicing or Procurement, depending on whether the process begins on the sales or purchase side.
- Continue with Payments to understand settlement.
- Add Collections where overdue balance management is part of your process.
- Use Contracts for recurring services and subscriptions.
