Order statuses

What each order status means, who sets it, and how you change the status of one or many orders.

Every order has a status. It shows where the order is in the process and decides whether the order can still be fully edited, picked or deleted. Most statuses are set automatically – by the import, the pick list, the packing table or the tracking. If necessary, you can change the status manually.

Filter by status

In the order overview use Select status (Status auswählen). Two special filters exist:

  • Tracking enabled (Tracking gesetzt) – orders with a tracking number and a shipping method.
  • on the pick list (auf Pickliste) – orders that are on a pick list (logisticians only).

Which orders can be edited?

  • Orders in status Open, Error or In shipping can be fully edited – positions, client and order number included.
  • All other orders can only be edited in a restricted way: address, numbers, shipping options and documents. See Create or edit an order.

What happens when you change the status manually

New status Effect
Open The handover date to the service provider is removed and the shipped quantity of all lines is set back to 0.
In shipping The handover date to the service provider is set to now.
Cancelled The order is removed from all pick lists. With a JTL connection, the order is also cancelled line by line in JTL (only when you change a single order). See Cancel or delete an order.
Any status The stock of the articles is recalculated, and an entry is written to the order history (Status changed manually or Status change (bulk action)).
