Status moves forward
Real Porosi product screens. Customers can order on iOS, Android or the web, and submitted orders appear in the supplier dashboard for review.
Acknowledgement route
Order acknowledgement must be clear about what has happened and what still needs review.
In wholesale, receipt is not the same as picking, delivery or invoice readiness. Acknowledgement works best when it sits beside review status and order detail.
Separate review stages
Use accepted or invoiced progress only when the team has moved the order on.
Keep order detail open
Staff must still see products, quantities, prices and notes before next step.
Support customer service
Give the office a clearer record when customers ask for updates.
One order, two perspectives
Acknowledgement needs honesty as much as speed.
A buyer builds the order from the products, prices and history available to their account. When they press submit, order acknowledgement, submitted status, accepted status and customer notes stay with the order, so the supplier can check it without retyping a call, email or message.
Customer side
Customers need
- A clear sign that the supplier has the order.
- Confidence that notes and delivery details were submitted.
- A route back to order history under the supplier brand.
Supplier side
Order desks need
- A visible distinction between received and accepted work.
- Exceptions surfaced before fulfilment or finance starts.
- Status context that helps customer support answer quickly.
What the supplier receives
What matters in acknowledgement software: whether it prevents false certainty.
The supplier team receives one order record with order acknowledgement, submitted status, accepted status and customer notes. Staff can check exceptions before picking, delivery or invoice preparation begins.

Silent submission
The buyer does not know whether the order arrived.
