Understanding the History tab of an Order

ORDER MANAGEMENT > ORDERS

If a customer has questions about the progress of a shipment or other actions that their orders underwent, you can refer to the Order History tab to view and understand the order's journey.

In the Order History tab, statuses are sorted chronologically. The oldest status appears at the bottom of the screen and most recent status is displayed at the top.

Figure 1 - History information of an order

Two types of modifications can trigger events in Orckestra Commerce Cloud:

•

When an event is manually triggered by a user, they will be identified in the Modified By column, in the following format: username@domain.name

Figure 2 - User triggered event

•

When a status is modified by an automated system action, the user name in the Modified By column will show OOE@username@domain.name (which means Orchestration Engine).

Figure 3 - System triggered event

This tab is useful to view and track each shipment history. Click the arrow to the left of the event to view which status matches which shipment.

In the example above, the following information is provided:

•

Created Date: The date and time at which the event occurred (not the date and time the order was created)

•

Shipment Number: The shipment number is displayed in the Items and Fulfillment tabs

•

Old Value: The shipment's previous status
