Q: What do I do after uploading?

What are OEM activations in Tazk POS?

Manufacturers (OEMs) report which handsets or serialised units have been activated by an end customer. In Sales → OEM Activations you upload that report, or type the IMEIs in, and Tazk matches each IMEI to the lot you sold or sent on a delivery challan. A lot on an open DC that is activated becomes To be Invoiced, which tells you the dealer has sold it and should now be billed.
