  • Upon converting Web Order to Sales Quote, this field will be used for Document Date on the Sales Quote
  • Upon converting Web Order to Sales Order, this field will be used for both Document Date and Order Date on the Sales Order.

Note: Upon creating Sales Quotes and Sales Orders, E-Commerce B2B will not automatically populate the Posting Date field.

Indicates the current state of the customer's approval, if requested for either accepting a quote or approving changes to an order.

blank There is no customer approval process initiated for this Web Order.
Pending You have requested the customer approval, and the customer has not yet approved the request.
Approved You have requested the customer approval, and the customer has approved the request.
Rejected You have requested the customer approval, and the customer has rejected the request.

Note: The customer can only change this field from Pending to Approved using the Storefront, as there is no option to simply Reject approval requests. The rationale behind this implementation is that allowing customers to simply “Reject” is counter-productive, i.e. your only option upon receiving a simple “Rejected” message is contacting the customer and “rescuing the deal”. Instead, customers are asked to either Approve or post additional comments to the Quote/Order while remaining on the “Approval Pending” state, which leads to more productive communication and resolution of issues.

The Workflow Status is a simplified representation of the current order processing stage intended to give the customer a quick understanding of “how far it is”, and it is abstracted from the customer-irrelevant details of Dynamics NAV documents, functions, posting etc.

E-Commerce B2B tracks the actions performed on Sales Quotes and Sales Orders generated from a Web Order, and automatically updates the Workflow Status accordingly, allowing customer to follow-up on order processing within the Storefront.

Reservation A Sales Order has been created for the Web Order, either directly or via a Sales Quote. From customer's perspective, Reservation means you have taken the order and are treating it as final, which generally corresponds to having the order in your Sales Orders, which affects your Item Availability.
Note: This status does not have any technical relation to the Item Reservation features in Dynamics NAV, which you may use independently.
Warehouse The Sales Order has been released. From customer's perspective, sales department is done with the order, and the order has moved to the warehouse for picking/shipping. Unless there are special provisions on your behalf, e.g. prepayment collection or similar, this generally corresponds to the meaning of Released in Dynamics NAV.

Shipped You have posted Shipment for all the quantities on the Sales Order lines.

Displays the price per unit of the Item or Resource being ordered.

According to Customer card setting Prices Including VAT, which is linked to the Web Account representing the customer placing the order, the caption of this field may be either Unit Price Incl. VAT or Unit Price Excl. VAT, which is the same behavior found in standard Dynamics NAV Sales Quotes and Sales Orders.

Note that the unit price, applicable discounts, as well as line and order totals presented were calculated by E-Commerce B2B at the time the order was placed. When creating a Sales Quote or Sales Order from the Web Order, E-Commerce B2B will let Dynamics NAV to recalculate the pricing for the Quote/Order, and not force using the prices set on the Web Order lines. In case there are differences, which may arise from updated pricing after the order has been placed, E-Commerce will detect the amount mismatch upon Releasing the Quote or Order and present a dialog raising the amount difference issue. You can then decide how to properly handle the price change and:

  1. Update your Sales Order/Quote to match the pricing the customer got upon placing the order
  2. Refresh the Web Order to the current pricing/amounts and optionally request customer's approval for the changes.

Line discount percentage applicable to the order line.

This field will be blank for B2C scenarios, as B2C customers do not have an option to select the addresses from your Ship-to Address lists.
