Understanding the Order Hold Workbench

The Order Hold Workbench enables visibility into holds across orders, lines and schedules and to make it easier to apply, release, and delete individual holds against multiple orders. You can release or apply holds using the workbench instead of manually manipulating the holds on the sales order or using the background processes. The workbench includes:

  • Search criteria for retrieving orders.

  • The ability to see certain analytic data about holds across your organization.

  • The ability to manually apply, release, or delete holds across multiple orders at the header, line or schedule level.

  • The ability to have a message evaluated against an order and have holds applied or deleted depending if the message should be active against a customer or product.

  • Role security to control the hold codes that each role can manipulate.

  • Links to product and customer messages and hold codes.
