Order Building

The Complete Ordering Process

Once a selection of desired items is made, usually by making use of the Favorites feature, the ordering process can start.

It includes three main phases:

Each of these phases is explained in a separate chapter. We will start with Order Building here.

What Is Order Building

The first phase of the full ordering process is Order Building.

It includes four steps (that don't necessarily always all need to be taken):

Quantifying The Order

The first step is quantifying. Start from the Product Detail Page of the item you wish to order. On the right bottom of the page you see the word 'Stockorder', 'Preorder' or 'Reorder', depending on the type of collection you are working with. Tap it.

Tap 'Stockorder' to see the Order Grid

A menu will pop up: the Order Grid. Here you can select the number of items you wish to order and the desired sizes, colors or fabrics. Simply tap the box of your choice to add +1.

How to Add Large Amount of Quantities

In case a large amount of quantity needs to be added a number pad can be used. on the right side of the order grid click the calculator icon.

once this option has been selected the calculator icon will turn dark, indicating it's turned on. selecting the box of the item you would like to order will prompt with a number pad, allowing to enter large quantity numbers.

Simultaneous Order Writing

As the name suggests: Simultaneous Order Writing enables you to write multiple orders at the same time. This way the order intake process is a lot faster and more efficient; while you are adding an item to the order of one client, you can directly add it to another client's order as well. Switching between draft orders can easily be done from the Order Grid.

How To Simultaneous Order Write

Start from the Product Detail Page of the item you wish to order. On the right bottom of the page you see the word 'Stockorder', 'Preorder' or 'Reorder', depending on the type of collection you are working with. Tap it.​

Reaching the Order Grid

This will take you to the Order Grid: the pop-up menu that allows you to choose quantities before adding them to your order.

In the Order Grid, tap the Simultaneous Order Writing Icon in the top left corner.​

Simultaneous Order Writing from the Order Grid

A new menu will pop up, allowing you to create a new draft order and name it. Tap the + icon to do so.

Arrange your draft orders by giving them a title. Typically orders are labeled or splitted into shops, delivery addresses, drops or departments.​

Create new draft order

Once you've added the draft orders you want to work with, you can select one by tapping it.​

Selecting draft order for Simultaneous Order Writing

Now, you can tap the original order grid menu and add the variation and number of this item you wish to include in the order for this particular draft order / client.

Stock And Future Stock

The Stock And Future Stock functionality allows you to order items that will be in stock later in the season (or the next). It is a part of reorder collections, named 'Stockorder' in the app. With the simple press of a toggle button in the Order Grid, you will see the current and future stock levels of all items at first glance.

How To See Stock And Future Stock

Start from the Product Detail Page of an item you wish to order.

Tap 'Stockorder' at the bottom right of the page. This will take you to the Order Grid.

Tap 'Stockorder' for Order Grid access

Once you do so, the Order Grid will pop up. Now, tap the toggle button that says 'Display Stock Levels'.

Toggle switch for stock levels

This will enable the stock and future stock levels, including the date on which the item will be in stock again. With this functionality, you can go ahead and order the item already, even though it will be delivered in the future.

How To Order Stock And Future Stock

In the Order Grid with 'Display Stock Levels' enabled, you see a large number and a smaller date and a number in the box at each item option. In the example above, large number: 40, date: 01 Aug: 20, small number: 20. This means that the item in this variation has 40 pieces in stock and will be in restocked with 20 pieces again on August 1st.

If you tap the field in the box, you see both numbers (40 and 20 in the example) decline each time you touch it. By tapping as many times as you wish to order this particular item, you add these items to your order.

The rest of the ordering process is similar to the order quantifying process as explained above.

Viewing Future Delivery Dates

The delivery dates for stock and future stock can be viewed in the cart. They will be automatically divided into different moments in your order detail overview.
