How to use cross-selling items in SOP orders in Sage 200

Summary

Sage 200 gives you the option to add items that you usually sell in bundles on a SOP order.

An example of this could be when you are selling a printer and you want to sell ink and paper with it.

This is a great opportunity to cross sell items in SOP orders in Sage 200.

How do I use cross-selling items in SOP orders in Sage 200?

To enable this, you’ll need to access the SOP settings and tick the “Allow users to select items for cross-selling” under the Sales Assistance tab.
