This sales order or quote now becomes visible in the list of items requiring approval, making it easy for managers to swiftly locate and approve or reject orders.

Approve or Reject with Ease Using Cin7 Core

Cin7 Core’s comprehensive design also allows you to approve or reject an order using the mass action menu when listing orders. The API ensures that these processes run seamlessly, adding to the charm of this versatile feature.

Not that simple to understand

The Cin7 Orders screen displays sales orders that need to be picked or packed individually or in groups.
 
Numbers to guide you
 
Nevertheless, it’s not as simple as you might think. Knowing exactly what steps to take when you open a Cin7 sales order can be more challenging.

In the new system, they do provide you with numbers, so that you can follow them. 
I would suggest, rather than focusing on the numbers, you should learn how to use the interface in general, as you may be confused if you don’t.

As a result, I have designed this workflow to explain how to move from a sales quote to a draft sales order and eventually a sales invoice.

You should keep in mind…that in the standard workflow, once approved the button names change from “Approve & Email” to “Save & Email”.
Apart from understanding little quirky things like that, it is also important to understand that there are statuses that can trigger interaction with external applications like Shopify or the Cin7 WMS.
Basically, stages are used when sales orders move from one stage to the next until they are fully completed.
