After you have submitted your Shopping Cart, it is routed through the Enterprise Buyer 2.0 Desktop Edition for approval and the creation of Orders to the various suppliers of items in the Shopping Cart.

At any time you can view the progress of your Shopping Cart in the Shopping Cart Status page.

If you left your Shopping Cart before submission, it can also be seen in the Shopping Cart Status page. However, it may be easier to locate by looking in the Open Shopping Cart page.

1. Go to the Enterprise Buyer 2.0 Desktop Edition Home page.
   
2. Click Shopping Carts in the Check Status menu.

   The browser displays the Shopping Cart Status page containing:

   • A group of fields used to select the Shopping Carts to be displayed and their order, by:
     • Entering free-form text, numbers, or wildcard characters
     • Selecting from drop-down menus
   • A list of Shopping Carts, information about them, and actions you can perform

Shopping Cart List

By default, the list is sorted by Creation Date (column number five, in the list of Shopping Carts.)  with the most recent Shopping Cart at the top of the list.

If there are enough Shopping Carts for the list to fill several pages, use the VCR-style controls to move forward and backward through the pages.

Use the drop-down menus and text entry boxes, above the list,  to filter the list, and find the Shopping Cart that interests you.

Shopping Cart Status

The Shopping Cart List includes, for each Shopping Cart, the current status, that can be:

• Open, if the buyer has not yet submitted the Shopping Cart
  
  
• Awaiting Approval, if the total cost exceeds the buyer's Spending Limit
  
  
• Pending Action, if there are unresolved issues, such as a special request, requiring action from an approver or administrator
  
  
• Order Created, if the Shopping Cart satisfies the system workflow, is approved and Orders have been created
  
  
• Cancelled by the Buyer
  
  
• Rejected by the Approver
