An Order in OriginsNext is a digital representation of a trade transaction between supply chain participants. It connects buyer, seller, logistics and product information to enable traceability and compliance across supply chains. Orders can be linked to associated Products, Events and Evidence records to demonstrate transparency and meet market or regulatory requirements.
What you can do with an Order
From the Order Compliance screens you can:
View all Orders created or received by your organisation, and track each Order's status. See What do the Order statuses mean?
Set the Order's compliance requirements (the evidence and traceability it must meet). See How do I add compliance requirements to an Order?
Check compliance before you allocate: use Explore compliance to compare your available, unallocated inventory against the Order's requirements, so you allocate only compliant stock. See How do I find compliant inventory for an Order with Explore compliance?
Allocate products and verify compliance after allocation: assign the products that fulfil the Order and confirm their compliance status once allocated.
Identify and resolve traceability gaps across the product journey, including direct and indirect suppliers.
Generate Order-level evidence (such as a Specimen Export Record) from the product and supporting records.
Share the Order and its data and evidence with buyers, regulators and other participants, with control over what each party can see.
Review the Order's journey locations, its participants (chain of custody), and a complete, auditable history.
To get started, go to Order Compliance from the main menu.
