How are Sellar Credit orders different?
Why are Sellar Credit orders handled differently?
You are selling your Products to us, Sellar (Waffle Tech LTD), and we are then selling these products on to the end customer. This means orders are still placed against your Customer, but invoiced to us. (*except BREWW, see below)
You don't need to generate and send invoices to your end customer in your integrated system. We issue these on your behalf via our self-billing arrangement. (See how Payouts work here)
If you need to raise a Credit Note for a customer you must raise it in Sellar. As orders are invoiced to us and not directly to the customer, we will generate two credits and do all the work for you. (See how Credit Notes work here)
How will it work for my Sellar Credit orders?
How does this work with my Brewery Management Systems integrations?
Orders will still be allocated to your end Customers in your Brewery Management System. This remains the same as it does now, including when this happens. (*except BREWW see below)
Sellar (Waffle Tech LTD) will be recorded as the entity being invoiced on the orders. This will be different to orders placed with other payment types in Sellar.
What do I need to do to prepare?
What can I do in my Brewery Management System to get ready for Sellar Credit orders to flow in?

All orders paid for with Sellar Credit will get placed against Sellar (Waffle Tech LTD) not your Customer. (Breww feature request to change that)
No settings need to be changed. When your first order flows into BREWW the new Customer will be created on import.
Orders will be pushed to Breww when orders are confirmed in Sellar.

What's an example of how this works?
How does this work in practice with an order?
Your Customer places an order for £300 on Sellar and opts to pay by Sellar Credit.
Either as soon as the order is placed or finalised (depending on your integration) the order is pulled through to the integrated system. This goes against your Customer who placed the order. Sellar will be the invoiced entity.
Your integrated system will not create and send invoices automatically. You don't need to do this manually either, we handle all the invoicing.
Once the order is finalised on Sellar the integration will pull through the fee amount, recording it as a line item on the order. This will be rated at 0% tax and marked as a bank charge for purposes of accounting.
You will now have an order for your Customer totalling £291.03 (£300 minus the Sellar Credit Fee at 2.99% of the total order value in this example)
When you are paid from Sellar for this order, the order will be marked as paid and your integrated system will update accordingly.
What about Credit Notes?
You will need to raise Credit Notes in Sellar for all Sellar Credit Orders
For all Sellar Credit orders a Credit note must be raised in Sellar (find out how to do this here)
You will need to raise a credit note in your Brewery Management System to match that raised in Sellar. This must be raised against Sellar (Waffle Tech LTD).
If the Credit Note in your integrated system doesn't update stock or duty remember to do this manually.
