Live Order Status

The flow of orders within the OrderGrid application as below:

Orders enter into the system (QUEUED),
routed to the OrderGrid warehouse location (PROCESSING),
selected by picker (PICKING, PICKED),
moves to the pack line (PACKING, PACKED),
and finally, picked up the shipping carrier (SHIPPED)

CONFLICT: Issue with the order preventing it from being fulfilled.

CANCELLED: The online store order data doesn't match the order OrderGrid picked and packed. This is usually because there is a change in the quantity needed fulfilled (i.e. more or less than what we picked and packed), or a technological issue that is preventing the order to complete fulfillment.

1001: Payment pending (partially refunded order)

1. confirm with customer to fulfill
2. unflag - will go into processing

1004: 'Phone number is invalid. Between 10 and 11 digits, only numbers.',

Note: Carriers require phone numbers

1. On the order page, click "Edit".
2. Add phone number, this can be your phone number or a fake phone number if you do not have the customer's phone number.

2001: Product not found

1. Ensure product is mapped.
2. On the order page, click "Edit".

3. On the top right, click "reimport order" - order will be queued

2003: 'No UOM. Please check product mapping',

1. Ensure product is mapped correctly.
2. On the order page, click "Edit".

3. On the top right, click "reimport order" - order will be queued.

3001: Inventory out of stock

This occurs when items are overcommitted, it means that there are more items committed to orders than what we have in stock. The conflict allow us to choose which orders should be prioritized.

1. On the order page, click "Edit".

2. Toggle the line item to active.

3. Click "save".

4. Click "unflag".

Partially fulfill

1. Edit order to "accept partials"
2. Unflag
3. Ensure line items out of stock/product not found are toggled to "unfulfill"
4. Save

Notes:

  • Accepting partials and activating line items will result in fulfilling the stock quantity that is available at the warehouse.

  • Keep in mind that clicking on the 'Complete' button will close the order.

  • A partially fulfilled order cannot be reimported. A solution to this is to duplicate the order on Shopify or create a manual order.

4001: 'Online Store refused item fulfilment'

This occurs when the e-commerce platform does not allow us to pack the order.

1. Check that there is outstanding items to fulfill on the e-commerce platform and it matches the order data on OrderGrid.

2. The order status must be "processign" in order to edit. On the order page, click "Edit".

3. To update the order to match the e-commerce order data, click "re-import".

5001: 'Destination country is not covered. Create a warehouse routing rule.',

9999: 'Order Routing'

This occurs when the Order Routing rules are not set up to include the destination country of the order.


1. Navigate to the "Sales" on the left-hand column.
2. Navigate to the store to set up order routing rules.
3. Add the destination country to an existing or new warehouse routing rule. Read more here.
4. On the order page, click unflag.


Resolving Cancelled Orders

Cancelled Orders happen when the online store order data doesn't match the order OrderGrid picked and packed. This is usually because there is a change in the quantity needed fulfilled (i.e. more or less than what we picked and packed), or a technological issue that is preventing the order to complete fulfillment.
If the order still requires fulfillment after it is cancelled, the cancelled order will be replaced with a new order which will include a letter, ex. G-1000 is cancelled, G-1000A is the replacement order.

example 1: Order is cancelled on the online store while we are pick and packing.
The order will be cancelled on OrderGrid and inventory will be returned.
No replacement order needed as the order is cancelled.

example 2: Order G-100 changes from 1 unit to 3 units needed in the order while we are pick and packing.
Order G-1000 will be cancelled on OrderGrid, and G-1000A is the replacement order with the correct 3 units required for fulfillment. It seamlessly falls into fulfillment queue.

If you are still having ongoing issues with cancelled orders, please reach out to your Customer Success point of contact.


Bulk Action Tool

Bulk Action tool can unflag orders with only ONE item out of stock and no other issues that would cause it go back into conflict (out of stock inventory, product not found, etc.).
When an order has multiple items, you would have to clear that order individually.

Congratulations! You have successfully cleared your conflicted orders in OrderGrid.
