Work with Orders
Shillinq treats every commitment between you and another party as an Order. A purchase order to a supplier, a sales order to a customer, a booking, a grant / subsidie, a quote and a ZZP engagement are all the same primitive — they share a counterparty, an amount, dates, a status and lines, and differ only in their type.
This replaces the separate Subsidies, Purchase Orders and Quote/Sales pages that used to live in their own menus: there is now one Orders workspace, filtered by type.
Goal
By the end you will know how to find, filter and open any order, read its payments and lines, and understand how the former subsidie / purchase-order pages map onto it.
Prerequisites
- Shillinq open with the OpenRegister back end connected (see Open Shillinq for the first time).
- A counterparty (customer / supplier / grantee) reference available.
The Orders list
Open Orders in the navigation. You get one list of every order in the administration, with a Type filter:
| Type | What it is | Where it used to live |
|---|---|---|
purchase | A purchase order to a supplier | Purchase Orders |
sales | A sales order to a customer | Sales Orders |
quote | A quotation | Quotes |
booking | A booked service (with its deposit-to-invoice flow) | Bookings |
grant | A grant / subsidie (applied → granted → settled → paid → reclaimed) | Subsidies |
engagement | A ZZP engagement (DBA model agreement) | DBA |
blanket | A blanket/call-off framework order | Blanket Orders |
Pick a type from the filter to narrow the list; clear it to see everything. The columns show the order number, type, counterparty, total amount, date and status.
Opening an order
Click an order to open its detail. The page shows the order's own fields plus two related sections:
- Payments — every payment against this order: a booking deposit, an installment, a grant disbursement (uitbetaald) or reclaim (teruggevorderd). Amounts are no longer fields on the order; they are Payment records, so the same payment widget works for every order type.
- Lines — the order lines (the unified successor of quote/sales-order lines).
Grants (subsidies)
A grant is an order of type grant. Its grant-specific detail — scheme
(regeling), article, decision date (beschikking), settlement date
(vaststelling), performance report (prestatieverantwoording) and the
auditor-statement threshold — sits on the order alongside the shared fields. The
awarded amount is the order's total; the paid out and reclaimed amounts
are Payment records. The accountability report and auditor statement remain their own
records, linked to the order.
So the old Aanvragen → Verleend → Vastgesteld → Uitbetaald → Teruggevorderd pages are now a single grant order moving through those states, with its payments listed beneath it.

Next steps
- Create a purchase order — raising a
purchaseorder and three-way-matching it. - Manage a contract — longer-running agreements.
