Approval Based Orders

This process shows how vendors handle marketplace orders that require approval before fulfillment.
Vendors review incoming orders, approve or reject them, and then update the order status as it moves through dispatch and delivery.

  • Ensure smooth and reliable order fulfillment

Steps to Process an Approval-Based Order

  1. Go to the Orders section in the vendor portal to view orders waiting for approval.
  2. Open a specific order to review details such as items, quantities, and delivery address.
  3. Assign the order to start working on it.
  4. Move the order to the In Progress tab after assignment.
  5. Review the order and take action:
    • Approve the order to continue processing, or
    • Reject the order if it cannot be fulfilled, with a reason.
  6. After approval, prepare the order and mark it as Dispatched.
  7. Once the order reaches the buyer, update the status to Delivered to complete the process.
