The Orders screen

Orders has three columns. Admins see To order on the left; an Issuer sees Recent orders there instead, the latest 10. The middle column, On the way, lists placed orders still open, overdue first, each with Receive (see receiving). This month counts the orders placed and received this month with their value, and Open the ledger goes to every order.

New order and Order for a person, at the top, are open to everyone. Both make a draft.

What appears in To order

To order has one panel per supplier, A to Z, for every supplier with a size at reorder or a draft with lines. The panel heading shows the supplier's lead time and order email, or no email on file, and the number of lines and their value at catalogue cost.

Each size at reorder is a line, with a suggested quantity of twice the level, less what is on hand, less what is on order, never below 0. On order counts every open order and draft, so a quantity already on a draft is not suggested again. The supplier is the garment's, or the first in Settings › Catalogue & suppliers when it has none.

The columns are Code, Garment, On hand, Reorder, On order, Per week, Order and Cost. A size with no supplier code shows no code, linked to the garment's page. A size tagged runs out before this arrives is sorted to the top.

• The Order stepper changes a quantity; × takes a line off.
• Add a line adds any current garment and size, with a quantity.
• Edits stay on this screen until the panel is ordered.

Drafts in the panel

Each of the supplier's drafts with lines is listed under the table, tagged staff when it is for a person or draft when it is for stock, with its own Supplier order no. box. A draft for a staff member is raised as its own order and never merged into the stock order, so each person's order stays separate from the shelf's.

Ordering

The foot of the panel has Supplier order no. for the stock order: the number the supplier gives when the order is placed on their site. Sheet prints the panel as it stands.

Order and email, or Order when the supplier has no order email, raises the panel:

• The stock lines become a new order for stock, status Ordered, with the supplier order number as its reference and an expected date of today plus the supplier's lead time, or 14 days when none is set. Lines at 0 are dropped.
• Each draft becomes Ordered, taking its supplier order number if one was typed.
• If anything is refused, for example a draft somebody else has already placed, nothing is raised.
• With an order email on file, each order is then emailed, and the panel says Sent to the address or why it wasn't.

The panel then lists the orders raised, each with Print, CSV and Email, until Done.

The sheet, the CSV and the email

Print opens the A4 purchase order (Admin): the order number and supplier reference; the facility, its location and organisation; the supplier with contact, phone and email; the date and expected date; the account number; the person it was ordered for, with department and cost centre; a row per line with the supplier code; and spaces for who ordered and the date placed. Where a size has no supplier code, the garment's SKU is used. Opening the sheet records when the order was printed. The same sheet is Order sheet on the order's own page.

CSV downloads the order number, supplier and supplier order number, then Supplier code, Description, Size, Qty and Unit cost per line.

Email sends the order to the supplier's order email. The subject reads like Purchase order ORD-2026-0042 (NW-48211) — Riverside General, with the lines, the account, the delivery location and an estimated value ex tax, asking the supplier to quote the order number on the invoice. It is refused for a draft, a cancelled order, a supplier with no order email, and a server with no email set up.

The ledger

Orders › All orders lists every order. Search by order number, reference, invoice, tracking, supplier, person or garment, and filter by Supplier, Garment, From, To and All, Draft, Open or Received. Open means placed and not yet received or cancelled. Export CSV downloads the orders shown.

A garment's page lists every order line for it under Orders, and every change of unit cost under Price history.
