That is not a bad idea, thank you very much for that!

What I used to do to solve a similar problem is to use the delivery location as a 'status'. You can create for example a 'waiting' location (I use to have a 'back order' location) and assign it to the order when you create it. When it's ready you'll have to change manually the location to the correct one. It's a bit of faffing but better than nothing. The advantage of using a location is it appears in the 'oustanding order' page and you can also filter order by location (ie status).

Order processing and status

We are struggling with the order process in FA.

When entering an order, it may not be ready to ship right away. So we do not want to send the order off to the warehouse for picking.

How can we assign an order status to a sales order? We would want to know if it has been printed, if it is picked and ready to ship etc.

Any suggestions?
