We’re excited to announce an update to the Sale Order status workflow in Qoblex. This change simplifies how you view and manage the lifecycle of orders, especially around invoicing and fulfillment.
Previously, sell orders moved through these fixed states:
Quote
→ Allocated
→ Invoiced
→ Shipped
(or Cancelled
)
This structure caused confusion in scenarios such as:
Partial Invoicing: Orders flagged as “Invoiced” could be either fully or partially invoiced, making filtering difficult.
Shipped but Not Invoiced: There was no way to reflect shipped orders that hadn’t been invoiced yet.
Invoiced then Cancelled: The final status obscures the invoicing history once canceled.
We’ve streamlined the state system:
Old Status | New Status |
---|---|
Quote | Quote |
Allocated | Open |
Invoiced | Open |
Partially Invoiced | Open |
Shipped | Closed |
Cancelled | Cancelled |
Invoicing is no longer a status—it’s now a flag associated with the order. This flag can be:
Not Invoiced
Partially Invoiced
Fully Invoiced
This means you can now:
Easily filter for partially invoiced orders.
Track invoicing independently of fulfillment or cancellation.
Improve automation and reporting accuracy
