How automatic order approval works

Understand DistributorFlow auto approval for administrator and order-taker orders, the customer-order exception and where saved orders appear.

Choose whether an admin-created order should be confirmed immediately.

Where to start

Orders > New Order > Save confirmation prompt

Steps

  1. The distribution administrator reviews the auto-approval setting shown in Create order or order settings.
  2. With auto approval enabled, administrator and order-taker orders attempt the normal approval workflow after creation.
  3. With it disabled, those orders wait for review in the unconfirmed workflow.
  4. Customer-created distribution orders still require review. POS sales follow their separate workflow.
  5. Always check the saved result through See this order. A validation or approval problem must not be treated as a completed approval.

Example

Choose No while reviewing a large order before assignment.

Before you finish

This prompt is controlled by Order Settings. POS sales do not use this auto-confirm setting.
