Work Orders Overview: Managing Data

The Work Orders Overview page is the central location for all orders that are ready for production. That means any orders or requests that have been approved can be passed on to production.

Work Orders → Work Orders Overview.

Routes into the Work Orders Overview:

  • Customer places orders via the Instant Quote tool on the web portal (front end)

  • The customer accepts the quote and checks out via the web portal (front end)

  • The quote is sent to production via the Ticket Overview page

  • The quote is converted to an order from the Quotes list.

Designed to help you achieve an efficient and standardized order management system, the page is categorized by Order view, Part view, Item view, and Parcel view.

All orders are displayed in columns that can be configured according to your selection. Each column has a search and filter function. Each row has a "+" symbol, which opens a breakdown of the order by parts.

Tip* Whenever you see the below 3-dots icon in the header of a table column, you can select it to define the visible columns:

  • Orders Overview offers a breakdown of parts within the order.


  • Parts View provides a more granular breakdown of the part on an item level.

Each part is displayed on a separate row.

The "+" symbol expands a view that consists of all items within that part. A new data column is available in the Items tab, called "Next step". This shows the users the next manufacturing step for that item.

IDs breakdown:

Order ID

OR-000XX

Part ID

OR-000XX-X

Item ID

OR-000XX-X-X

Parcel ID

PA-000XX

The structure of all IDs and statuses is customizable within the Settings → Workflow page.

Similar to all pages formatted with columns, a user can either select individual rows or batch-select multiple rows to perform status changes and download files.


The following functions are available on the Order level:

  • Change Ticket Status

  • Change Part Status

  • Download Files

  • Download PDF

Ticket Status


Applying a routine update to the Ticket status will assist in an efficient order management process.

Part Status

Part status should be an integral part of your workflow for several reasons:

1. Instant customer communication is based on part status. This could be set up in Workflow Automation with rules. API push messages of order data could be based on the part status, for example.

2. Your customers can track their orders on the front-end web portal in real-time:

Download Files

This function enables users to download source files, final files, additional files, or various CSV reports.

Source files are the originally uploaded files in the order. Final files are the repaired and quoted files.

The standard CSV reports available by default are as follows: CSV2, CSVB & CSVEX

Note* Only the data from the selected rows will be downloaded.

Parts tab

The following functions are available on the Parts Tab:

  • Change Part status

  • Change Item status

  • Download files

  • Download PDF

  • Assign to Parcel

Here you can assign the selected unassigned Parts to a New or Existing parcel:


Export PDF & Export Excel functions are available at the bottom of all pages that contain tables with information:
