You can process orders in bulk using one of the following bulk processing actions:

• Raise Purchase Order: Automatically generates a purchase order for the selected orders
• Mark as Produced: Changes the status of an order to Produced
• Mark as Shipped: Changes the status of an order to Shipped

Prerequisites

• You must have Administrator, Production Manager or Production Team permission to use this feature.

To process orders in bulk

1. Log into your DecoNetwork website.
2. Browse to Business Hub > Overview.
   
3. Tick the checkboxes of the orders you want to process in bulk.
   

   When a checkbox is ticked, the order row will be expanded to show the products ordered. The check boxes for each product item will be ticked by default. You can un-tick the checkboxes for items that you do not want to apply an action to.

   

   You can click on the checkbox icon at the top of the checkbox column to display the bulk-selection options:

   

   • Click on select all line items on this page to select all items displayed on the current page.
   • Click on deselect all to deselect all line items.

   The number in the circle indicates the number of line items selected.

   
4. Click on an action button.
   

   Only applicable actions will be enabled.

   If all items on the page are selected for production or shipping, a confirmation popup will appear, asking you to enter the number of items/orders that you want to process in order to confirm that action.

   

   

5. Enter the number of item/orders, then click OK.

   If you enter the incorrect number, a popup will be displayed prompting you to try again.

   

   When marking orders as shipped, the following popups will be displayed:

   • Send email?: this will ask if you want to send email notifications to customers.
     

     Select Yes or No and click okay.

   • Download New Shipments: this will prompt you to download packing slips or labels for the new shipments.
     

     Select Yes or No and click okay.

   • Marking items as shipped: this will show the progress of the bulk action.
