Order Maintenance 

Purpose 

The Order Maintenance screen is the central workspace for managing warehouse orders before they become consignments. 
It allows users to review, update, convert, or remove orders that have been created manually or received via integrations. 

This screen acts as the bridge between warehouse orders and carrier consignments, helping teams validate order details before progressing to freight booking. 

 

What Appears in Order Maintenance? 

The Order Maintenance screen displays orders from three sources: 

1. Create Order 
   Orders manually created via Warehouse → Create Order 
2. Create Packed Order 
   Orders created via Warehouse → Create Packed Order (ready-to-ship transport units) 
3. Integrated Orders 
   Orders automatically pulled into Cario via integrations (e.g. WMS, ERP, eCommerce platforms) 

Orders received via integrations can be reviewed here and then converted into consignments without re-keying data. 

 

How to Access Order Maintenance 

1. Log in to Cario 
2. Navigate to Warehouse 
3. Click Orders → Order Maintenance
    
   
   

   You will see a list of orders with key information such as: 

   • Purchase Order / Sale Order numbers

   • Items, weight, and volume 
   • Assigned service (if any) 
   • Current status
