Creating Several Orders? Use Duplicating Orders

Duplicating orders can be a time-saving strategy when creating multiple similar orders.

By duplicating orders, you can generate multiple orders with minimal effort, improving efficiency and productivity. This eliminates the need to manually input the same information repeatedly for each new order.

To duplicate orders, please follow these steps: 

 

1. Login to FibreTrace® and click on Orders:

 

 

If there is any order you would like to duplicate, you can find it in the Orders page of FibreTrace® where all of your order would appear and you can duplicate them to save time on data entry.

2. To duplicate any order, whether it is active or completed, simply click on the 3 dots as depicted in the image below and click on duplicate.

3. Once you click on the "Duplicate Order" button, a new window will appear, confirming that the order has been successfully cloned.

After duplicating the order, it's important to note that the date for your order completion is set as 01-01-2099 by default. This is done to prevent the new order and audit from being automatically marked as overdue.

Please Edit the order, the order form will pop up on the right side of the screen where you can see that the order completion date of the duplicated order is set to 01-01-2099 by default. 

Additionally, please note that the audit dates of the order processes are set to "2099-01-01" after duplication, and they should also be edited. Kindly review the order process information and edit each order process step to ensure that audit deadlines are updated.

The provided screenshot illustrates the due date for the audit deadline of an order process within a duplicated order.

Note: This default date can cause the product in the supply chain to be held in a waiting queue, making it impossible to reach the next step on the chain of custody. This is because only a completed order can progress down the supply chain. If left unedited, your duplicated orders with order completion date of 01-01-2099 can only progress through the supply chain on the 2nd January of 2099. To prevent any disruptions, it is crucial to modify the order completion date after duplicating it. This ensures a smooth flow of the next process and allows the product to progress seamlessly through the supply chain.

In addition to the order completion date and audit deadlines of each order process, you may make adjustments to other fields such as the assigned auditors, scan count, and audit templates to reflect the specific requirements of the duplicated order.
