Workflow

Decide how strictly statuses are enforced

Off, any status can follow any other, with the default rules. On, you choose each status’s next statuses.

  1. Workflow enforcement. Off, any status can follow any status, and only the default rules apply. On, an order can move only to the statuses you list. The default rules stay on either way.
  2. Next statuses. Each status with the statuses it may move to. It starts from the default flow. Every listed status needs at least one next status. Final statuses are not listed: they change only through an exception.
  3. Reset to the default flow restores the default.

The default rules always apply: nothing goes back to Created; Delivered, Returned, Cancelled, Lost and Damaged change only through an exception; cancelling after pickup follows Allow cancel after pickup; and the maximum attempts follow their settings.

  1. Edit policy. Never, until pickup, or until out for delivery. Fixing a phone or address after a failed delivery ignores it.
  2. Allow cancel after pickup. On, cancelling a picked-up order sends it back to the merchant, with the return charge of its package rule.
  3. Pickup scan required. The driver scans the label to complete a pickup. Off, scanning is optional, but a scanned label must still match.
  4. Attempts. Maximum pickup and delivery attempts (1 to 10) and what happens at the maximum: wait for your decision, or move to RTO automatically after the hours you set.
  5. Merchant portal signs out after. 15 minutes, 1 hour, 8 hours or 12 hours of inactivity. Your own staff always sign out after 15 minutes.
  6. Show 3PL partners to merchants. Off, merchants see “Driver assigned” and no partner name anywhere. On, they see “With <partner>”.
  7. Needs attention thresholds. How long an order may wait before it shows in Needs attention, counted in operating hours. They apply on the Dashboard, Dispatch, Failed & returns and the bell.

Common questions

Which setting makes an order late?

Deliver-by counts from, and the cut-offs.
