Event Orders View

The event orders view displays information on the current status of all orders on the system. In particular you can see the date when each of your orders were printed and packed. Double clicking any one entry will bring up the full details of the order (see Order Properties).

Columns

Header Description
Reference The order reference number. Can be displayed encoded or decoded (see Orders - View Encoded Refs).
Event The event name
ID

Unique transaction ID. Note the first character of the ID indicates the type of transaction:

  • W - the order was created by the customer online
  • P - the order was received by us by post
  • V - the order was paid by credit card - typically by telephone - note we do not encourage this service but will allow it on occasion.
  • C - CRP - you the client took the payment as opposed to us.
N 'Y' indicates the order has some notes attached to it. Hover over the 'Y' to see the notes.
RO 'Y' indicates the order is a 'reorder' (eg. a catalogue reorder)
Ordered Date the order was created.
Cleared Date the order was cleared; the order will not be printed until this date exists. Web and credit card orders are always cleared immediately. Cheque orders are cleared a fixed number of days after the order was placed (we generally have this set to 10 days which we have found to be be typically one day longer than the bank takes to inform us of the identity of a bounced cheque). For CRP orders it is up to you - if you uncheck the payment cleared box we will wait ten days from the order date before printing it. Note currently you cannot put a specific date here to get us to print on that date. If there is a clearance date then it is assumed to be cleared. We may change this in the future.
Printed Date the order was printed.
PP 'Y' indicates the order has been post processed. The post processing is done after an order has been printed and is when mug and mouse mats are done and MMS and email images are sent.
Packed As each order is packed ready for posting it is scanned and the time and date and packer are recorded. The date is displayed here after all parts of the order have been packed and scanned (Things like mugs are prepared separately and so scanned separately). There is no guarantee that it will have been posted the same day but if not it should have been posted by the following day. Posted orders are sent out by 2nd class mail so will typically take two to three days to arrive. Hover over the date (or the blank where the date would be displayed to see all details of the current packing status.
O The number of parts to the order - 1 for a simple order, greater than 1 for multi-orders.
