4 View Order

Purpose: Use this screen to view or update items on an order that are currently assigned to your current store location for shipment, sourcing, or pickup, and optionally to perform the next processing step for the order, such as picking the order.

Which order lines are displayed? The View Order screen displays order lines only if they’re eligible, at your current store location, for the processing step related to the screen where you selected the View option. For example, if you click View at the New Orders screen, only order lines that haven’t yet been accepted at your current store location are displayed. If you click View at the Ready to Pick screen, only order lines that have been accepted at your current location, but not yet picked, are displayed.

Available when? This screen is available by selecting View in the bottom right at the following screens:

  • New Orders: If there are any order lines that haven’t yet been accepted.

  • Ready to Pick: If there are any order lines that have been accepted, but haven’t yet been picked.

  • Ready to Receive: If there are any order lines on a ship-for-pickup order that have been shipped from the sourcing location, but haven’t yet been received at your current location.

  • Ready to Ship: If there are any order lines on a delivery order that have been picked but not yet been shipped to the customer, or on a ship-for-pickup order that have been picked but not yet been shipped to the pickup location.

  • Ready to Pick Up: If there are any order lines on a pickup order that have been picked but not yet picked up by the customer, or on a ship-for-pickup order that have been received at your current store location but not yet picked up by the customer; also, if a ship-for-pickup doesn’t have a separate sourcing location, but instead the order lines were picked at your current store location.

If all the items on an order are assigned to a different store location, aren’t open, or aren’t in one of the statuses described above, you can review the order at the View Full Order screen, which is available from the All Orders screen. Also, you need to use the View Full Order screen to view all lines on an order, regardless of status.

  • Pick Up at: The location where the customer picks up the pickup or ship-for-pickup order.

    Note: The Pick Up at location is not relevant to or included for a delivery order.
