Change status of printer supply demand
As soon as a demand for replacement supplies is requested, the process of analyzing the purchase begins, with stages that precede the finalization of the request.
To manage these steps, there is the function to change the status of the demand, which allows the user to customize the status of the request according to its flow.
The statuses can represent all the stages of the request until the demand is finalized, according to the following example flow:
Approved: the request has been analyzed and accepted.
Fulfilled: the order has been placed.
Invoiced: the invoice has been issued.
Forwarded: the order has been sent to the customer.
Lost: the order has not reached the customer.
Received: the customer has confirmed receipt of the order.
This form facilitates traceability and control of demand, since it is possible to filter the desired statuses.
In addition, the statuses can make it possible to control logistics factors, such as deadline, carrier name, etc.
