All orders placed on the system follow an ordering flow.
This flow means you can track your order from start to finish, and easily view previous stages by clicking on the icon of the stage.
The flow can be broken down into 5 steps:
- Shopping Lists
A Shopping List is a list of Supplier Products that you want to order across one or more suppliers. - Purchase Orders
A Purchase Order is an order with an individual Supplier. - Expected
Once an order has been sent, the system stores it as Expected to be delivered. - Arrived
Once an order has been delivered, it has physically Arrived on the premises, but you have not processed the items into stock yet. - Processed
A processed order has been adding to your stock and can be used for calculating your Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), Profit and Variances.
The most common practice is for orders to begin at stage 2. Purchase Order Step.
However, Shopping List orders will begin at stage 1. Shopping Lists, and Manual Orders and External Systems begin their journey at stage 3. Expected
