Batching Orders

The Order Manager page will not only give you the ability to search for orders but you can also update multiple orders at once. The batch feature includes capabilities such as processing credit card authorizations for multiple orders, entering multiple shipment tracking numbers, and batch printing invoices and packing slips.

Batch Update Orders

Before you can update multiple orders, you need to make your order selections.

From the Order Manager page, use search criteria to display the orders you want to update.
After the orders appear in your results, select them by ticking the checkbox next to each.
You can also tick the checkbox shown in the table heading, to select all of your results and exclude as needed.
In the example below, we have selected all orders with status 'Payment Pending'
Now find the batch update selections as shown. Click on the down-arrow to choose one of the batch options available.
Choose a batch option from the list and click the UPDATE button. The selected orders will be changed or there will be a following page that you can print or take further action. This depends on which batch option was chosen.
