|---|---|
| Confirmed (green) | Orders confirmed and ready to be made (includes picked orders) |

Unconfirmed orders

There are two ways to find a specific order:- Search - Tap the search icon to open the Find Order modal. Search by order number or customer name.
- Scan QR code - Tap the green QR scan button in the bottom-right corner to scan an order’s QR code from a printed worksheet or label.

- Customer name and contact details
- Recipient name and delivery address
- Card message and special notes
- Products with quantities

Mark Orders Ready
This is the fastest way to update multiple orders as you finish making arrangements. It uses your phone’s camera to scan QR codes from printed worksheets or labels.Open Mark Orders Ready
From the florist dashboard, tap the Mark Orders Ready card. The camera opens automatically.
Scan order QR codes
Point your camera at the QR code on each order’s worksheet or label. The app scans it automatically and marks the order as Ready.
- Green flash and vibration means the order was successfully marked as ready
- Red flash means there was an error (the order wasn’t found, or it couldn’t be updated)
- Yellow flash means you’ve already scanned that order in this session
Take a photo (optional)
If the Take photo after scan toggle is on, the camera opens after each successful scan so you can photograph the finished arrangement. This photo is attached to the order. Toggle it off if you don’t need photos.
Scanning an order
The Scan Order feature (the green QR button on the orders screen) lets you quickly find a specific order by scanning its QR code. Unlike Mark Orders Ready, this just opens the order details without changing its status. It’s useful when you need to check an order’s card message, delivery address, or product list.Managing tasks

- Update task status - Mark tasks as complete when you’re done
