Purchase Order Statuses

Each purchase order status is visually represented with a distinct badge style and icon for easy identification.

Status Types

Draft

• Usage: Initial creation or saved orders not yet sent to supplier

Ordered

• Usage: PO has been sent to supplier and is awaiting shipment

Shipped

• Usage: Supplier has shipped the order and provided tracking details

Delivered

• Usage: Order has been received at the warehouse

Canceled

• Usage: Order has been canceled and will not be fulfilled

Status Updates

Status badges automatically update when:

• Supplier updates shipping status
• Warehouse receives inventory
• Order is manually updated by authorized users

Status Flow

Orders typically follow this progression:

Draft → Ordered → Shipped → Delivered

Alternative Paths

• Any status can be changed to Canceled
• Draft orders can be deleted
• Delivered status is final (except for cancellation)

System Impact

Status changes trigger automatic updates to:

• Inventory forecasting
• Reorder calculations
• Stock level projections
