Orders Pane

Figure 9.80: The Orders pane
1 Approval, Pending, Complete, Canceled and Search tabs
2 Order panel with a list of orders
3 Order item panel with the individual order items for the selected order
If your store has been set up with an approval requirement, all incoming orders appear first in the Approval tab and need to be approved before they can be processed. Otherwise, incoming orders appear in the Pending tab. Orders move to the Completed tab if they have been shipped and marked as completed. Orders canceled by an administrator are moved to the Canceled tab.
Printer Administrators, Company Administrators/Approvers, and Company Approvers can approve/reject orders. The Company Administrator may have rights to manage orders of his/her own company in the Pending tab but generally this activity is reserved for the Printer Administrator and Printer Operator who process the orders further. The Company Administrator can always monitor the status of orders in the different tabs. All StoreCenter roles, except the Company Approvers, can also customize (set order item flag) the order items which require an intervention to facilitate production.
The Pending tab toolbar provides buttons to change the status of orders and mark them as Available (To Be Shipped), Shipped, Completed or Canceled.
Each tab and panel has a Search box to search in the displayed lists. You can also search across all orders in the Search tab.
