Orders

Managing Orders

Manage field orders from booking to approval to payment - with separate views for field employees, approvers, and admins.

Orders lets your field team book orders on the go, and gives managers a clear view of every order across the organization. Each order moves through approval and payment, with its balance due tracked automatically as payments are collected. Administrators manage the product catalogue and set up the approval workflow, so orders are priced correctly and reviewed the same way every time.

How it works,

  1. A field employee books an order - selecting the party and products.

  2. It goes for approval - the order is reviewed according to your Order Settings.

  3. Payment is collected - payments recorded against the order appear in Collections, and the order’s status updates to Partially Paid or Paid. 

How to Access Orders

  1. Log in to PrimeHR.

  2. Go to Field Tracking → Orders.

  3. Select My Orders, All Orders, Pending Approvals, Products, or Order Settings.
