Prepare a flowchart for the merchandise sales and shipping process at Budget Electronics

A customer at Budget Electronics submits an order to the Marketing Department, where it is input to the sales order system. Three copies of the sales order are produced, one is mailed to the customer and the two copies are sent to the Warehouse for processing.
The Credit Department checks credit for new customers only. If credit is approved, the master customer file is updated for credit limits.
First, the Warehouse checks to see the inventory is available by checking the stock status report. The warehouse verifies that the customer has credit available by checking the customer master database, assembles the order and sends the goods along with one copy of the sales order to shipping and receiving. The Warehouse files the last copy of the sales order numerically. The Warehouse also updates inventory master file.
The Shipping and Receiving Department packs the merchandise, prepares a packing slip and ships the order. The packing slip and sales order are including in the box sent to the customer.
