Important Note These menus of Buyer, Supplier and Transmission status drop-down menus include all possible statuses that may be seen by the system. Some are more useful than others.
  • Some of these statuses, such as Accepted by Supplier,  refer to purchasing transactions,  and can be used to track routine business items. 
  • Others, such as Change Pending,  refer to problems delivering ordered goods, and can be used to locate and respond to updates from suppliers.
  • Others, such as Failed to Send,  indicate types of system and internet problems and should not be required by a normal user. These are normally only used by an Administrator, when troubleshooting problems.
