Brainstorm Sales Order flow with me...

General Flow:

Customers broadcast a purchase quotation for a list of product/service they require. A finalized  quotation(on price and quantity) converts to Purchase order which when finalized converts to sales order then  Delivery Order and then Delivery Acceptance. Each phase/module in the flow is linked to Document Management System. Document management system holds mandatory documents relevant to each phase(eg: Bill of Lading, Receipt, etc). Each purchase and sales order should also be linked to inventory system which notifies or forecasts available amount. In case of a manufacturing company, this is linked to Bill Of Materials which help monitor child and parent products.

Starting with Purchase Quotation, each screen has a "Convert to.." button, which on pressing automatically passes details from current phase to next phase.

NOTE: Line items are in editable mode in quotation phase.

Note: Depending on  business rule, PO can have editable or non-editable line items. In this diagram i have kept it non-editable(shaded in blue).
