Council Orders

This article describes the Council Leader Orders screen and the actions you can take from that screen, including submitting Council orders and reviewing Unit Orders.

Written by Rachelle C

The Orders page shows all orders for your Council. From here, you can review and approve unit orders, create new Council orders, and track the status of each order as it moves through the approval process.

Accessing Orders

From the left navigation menu, select Orders under the Ordering and Inventory section.

What You'll See

The Orders table displays the following information for each order:

  • Date – the date the order was created

  • PO – the purchase order number

  • Type – the order type (for example, Show-n-Sell)

  • Delivery Name – a label identifying the order

  • Delivery Date – the date the order is scheduled to arrive

  • Delivery Location – where the order will be delivered

  • Status – the current stage of the order in the approval process (see below)

You can sort any column by clicking the arrows next to the column header, or search for a specific order using the search bar.

Reviewing Unit Orders

Before a Council order can be submitted, all unit orders feeding into it must be reviewed and approved. If there are unit orders awaiting your review, you'll see a small red circle with a number next to the Review Unit Orders button, for example, a "3" means there are 3 unit orders that still need your approval.

Select Review Unit Orders to view and approve those orders.

Creating a New Order

Select New Order in the top right corner to start a new council order.
