:::(Warning) (Tip)
The default document type for customer orders can be set using the **Report.CustomerOrder.DefaultDocumentType** [company setting](/workshop/docs/company-settings).
:::

Select the **Sales Order** Document Type toggle at the top.

Use the **Document Delivery** list below to select an output type for the document.

Sales orders can be also sent directly to customers by selecting an **Email** option.

To generate or send the document and return to the Customer Order screen, click the **Ok** button at the bottom of the pop-up window.

:::(Info) (Note)
If an additional discount line is included on a sales order or other customer order document (as set by the Report.PrintCustomerDiscount company setting), it will be formatted in landscape layout to accommodate the extra column. However, the **Report.CustomerInvoice.Orientation** [company setting](/workshop/docs/company-settings) can be used to force portrait orientation, even if the discount column is included.
