How to place an order with Planner 

With the Planner, you can easily place orders across multiple weeks in a single overview. Orders are placed by entering quantities on the shipping days. Order deadlines indicate when a delivery day is about to close. Only users with the Orderer role can activate the Planner’s order mode.
 

1.  Activate Order Mode

        Activate order mode by clicking the Order Mode toggle. 

2.  Scroll to the Desired Location

         Scroll down until you find the desired location, or use the filter in the toolbar to hide irrelevant locations..


3.  Add Product(s)

         Products that have already been ordered in the selected weeks will automatically appear in your overview. If you want to order products that are not yet listed, add them first so you can enter all order quantities at once. 


4.  Enter Order Quantities 

        For each delivery day and product, enter the desired quantity.
Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate between delivery days. You can also use the Tab key to move right or the Enter key to move down within the grid.

5.  Add an Order Reference or Note 

         Once a quantity has been entered, a box icon will appear above the delivery day.
