Delivery note generator

A delivery note travels with the goods and lists what was sent. It shows items and quantities only, with no prices. In India the same document is usually called a delivery challan.

What goes on a delivery note

  • Your business name and address
  • Who the goods are delivered to, and where
  • A delivery note number and date
  • The order or invoice number it belongs to
  • Each item with quantity and unit
  • The carrier or vehicle
  • A signature line for the person receiving the goods

Delivery note or invoice?

A delivery note says what was delivered. An invoice says what is owed. The person receiving goods often is not the person paying for them, which is why the delivery note leaves prices out.

From an invoice, use “Make a delivery note” to copy the items without the prices. Going the other way, “Make an invoice” copies the delivered items so you can add rates.

Questions

Why are there no prices?
The delivery note is for checking goods against the order. Rates, tax and totals are hidden for this document type. If the delivery note was made from an invoice, the rates stay with the items and come back when you make an invoice from it.
Is this enough for transporting goods?
That depends on your country and on what is being moved. Some places require specific transport or tax documents in addition. This tool only lays out the delivery note.
