Order workflow is the lifecycle of an order and order workflow state is the status of an order at various stages of the lifecycle. An order template can be linked to only one order workflow.

Note If the order associated with a signature template has Capture Location selected, then during signature capturing, geo-location details, such as Latitude and Longitude, are stored but not shown in the UI. This information is synced from mobile devices.

For existing projects and templates, in Order Template, add the Quantity field to the Custom JSON for Add Items or reset the Custom JSON field.

1. From the App Launcher, find and select **Advanced Orders**.
2. Select **New Advanced Order**.
3. If you know the customer's name, enter the name.
4. If you’re unsure of the customer’s name, search for and select the customer using one of these filters:
    - Customer Number
    - Shipping Street
    - Shipping Zip/Postal Code
    - Shipping State/Province
    - Shipping City
    - Priority Class of Trade
5. Select an order template.
6. Save your changes.
    
    Products are prepopulated and shown in the Order Item screen. Order items in an order are prepopulated based on the prefetching rules. For more information on prefetching, see [Retail Execution Order Management](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.cg_concept_admin_order_management.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Order management in Consumer Goods Cloud Retail Execution depends on the market and the customer type. You can manage direct and indirect orders, and order types, such as standard pre-orders, order samples, or order advertising material.").
    
    Some of the details, such as Payer and Document Transaction Type are preset based on the order template that's used to create the order.
7. If you want to add a product that isn’t listed or belongs to a different order type:
    
    1. Click **Add Items**.
        
        Up to 1000 products are shown.
    2. Filter the products by using one of these options, and then select one or more products.
        
        - Description 1
        - Product Code
        - GTIN
        - Category
        - Brand
        - Type: Filter products based on the product type, such as Promoted, Historical, Listed, Sales Document Assortment, or Customer Selling Assortment.
            
            ![Tip](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-consumer_goods_retail_admin-264-0-0-production-enus/5bb7d7f5-119d-42d0-8596-95e762837019/images/icon_tip.png)
            
            Tip When you filter products, you can choose multiple categories, brands, or types.
    3. Add the quantity.
    4. If you selected multiple products, use the context menu for the Quantity field and update the quantity for all the filtered or selected products.
    5. Click **Apply**.
    6. Click **Add**.
    
    The products and product quantities appear on the Order Items page.
8. To filter and find order items, select one or more of these product filter options:
    
    - Brand
    - Category
    - Consumer Goods Cloud Product Code
    - Order Item Template
    
    ![Tip](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-consumer_goods_retail_admin-264-0-0-production-enus/5bb7d7f5-119d-42d0-8596-95e762837019/images/icon_tip.png)
    
    Tip Use the hierarchical search in product filter options to quickly filter and find order items. As you specify the filter criteria, the order items are filtered and shown in real time. You can choose one or more brands, categories, or order item templates.
    
    If you’re upgrading to the Consumer Goods Cloud managed package starting Winter ‘26, add the hierarchicalSearch attribute in the Custom JSON for order items. See [Custom JSON for Order Items](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.cg_reference_admin_customjson_orderitems.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Custom JSON for Order Items controls the name and display behavior of the order and product fields on the Order Items page.").
9. Add the quantity for each product. If necessary, modify the quantity for each product.
10. Enter a discount percentage for the products, if any.
    
    If Compute Price of the order template is set to Add and Save, then values in the Total Value Gross and Value Receipt fields are recalculated and shown whenever the quantity and discount change for a product.
11. To calculate the penny perfect pricing for the order, Click **Calculate**.
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-consumer_goods_retail_admin-264-0-0-production-enus/5bb7d7f5-119d-42d0-8596-95e762837019/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note The calculate button is shown only if Compute Price is Offline (Button) in the order template. If Compute Price is Offline (Edit Mode), then order calculation is triggered automatically on editing an order. You can skip this step if Compute Price is any value other than Offline (Button) in the order template.
12. Click **Basket**.
    
    Products selected for the order are shown.
13. Save your changes.
    
    The gross value of the order appears on the order header.
14. On the order header, click **Edit**.
15. If necessary, edit these fields that are preset based on the order template that's used to create the order:
    - Order Date
    - Initiation Date
    - Delivery Date
    - Customer Order Id
    - Accountable
    - Responsible
    - Delivery Recipient
    - Wholesaler
16. If necessary, enter the order note for the invoice or delivery.
17. Submit the order.
    
    - If Approval History is configured, in the Approval History section, click **Submit for Approval** and then click **OK**. The order passes through several approval levels based on the configuration of the approval process.
        
        For Approval History to be shown, the Consider Selectable Promotion field must be Unchecked and Compute Price musn’t be Offline (Button) or Offline (Edit Mode) in the Order Template.
    
    The order is created and integrated into the ERP system. The state of the order changes based on the workflow selected for the order template.

- **[Products in Disposal List](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.cg_concept_admin_disposal_list.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    If Consider Field Availability is selected in an order template, then the disposal list shows products that are in the Field state. Depending on the configuration of the order template, you can also show listed products, historic products, and promotional products. Competitor products are included in an order if Allow Competitor Products is selected in the order template.
