What information does an order record contain on the web?

The record brings together the order details, its status, the products included, and related documents.

The following sections describe the layout from top to bottom and from left to right.

Main order details

The top left section displays the order name, order number, and total amount.

The general details appear below:

  • Valid until: the date until which the order is valid.

  • Closing date: the recorded closing date.

  • Owner: the person responsible for the order.

  • Environment: the environment the order belongs to.

  • Account: the account linked to the order.

  • Shipping address: the address recorded for delivery.

  • Currency: the currency used for the order.

  • Contact: the related contact, if specified.

  • Opportunity: the related opportunity, if specified.

Status review

To the right of the main details, you will find Status review. This widget displays the process stages and the current order status.

In the example, the stages are Draft quote, Quote sent, Quote under review, and Won/Lost.

The Current status field allows you to view and change the order status.

Select View change log to view the history. Each change shows the user who made it, the status, and the date.

Internal comment

Below the status review, Internal comment allows you to view and add internal notes about the order.

To add a note, select the button with the + symbol.

The Lines section displays the products included in the order. Each row represents an order line and contains:

The Reports section displays the reports available for the order, together with their names and creation dates.
