The Order Form in the admin area is used to place an order on behalf of a user. Depending on which ordering types are enabled for your program, you can place both scheduled and non-scheduled orders from the same form.
- Scheduled orders have a specific due date, and each user is limited to one order per order period.
- Non-scheduled (continuous) orders are tied to a date but have no per-user limit — a user can place any number of orders on any date.
Adding a new order
- Open the Order Form using either of these methods:
- From the Manage Orders page (Orders → Manage Orders), click the New Order button.
- Click the + icon in the header and select New Order.
- On the Order Form, select the user from the User dropdown.
- Select the date from the Date dropdown.
- Click Add New Order.
- You'll be taken to the order entry screen to add gift cards. For details on using that screen, click here.
Note: If you try to add a scheduled order for a user who already has one in the selected period, you'll be redirected to their existing order — only one scheduled order per user per period is permitted. If users need to place multiple orders within the same period, enable continuous ordering, which can run alongside scheduled ordering.
