Network view

The Network view allows you to manage the fulfillment network. It's designed for network, store, and warehouse managers requiring a general overview of orders, facilities, and inventory at the network level.

You'll only see this view if you have the role and permission to select this view. See the Backoffice permissions article for more information.

Home

On the homepage, you'll see an operational overview and a facility map. You can use the Customize button to change this layout.

Operation overview

The operation overview gives you a quick look at what's happening across your fulfillment network. It can highlight up to three KPIs, so you can easily access important data for your facilities.

The three default KPIs are:

  • Open orders: Number of orders in status OPEN

  • Unroutable orders: Number of orders in status UNROUTABLE

  • Order errors: Number of orders in status ERROR

Selecting a number opens the Orders overview with the corresponding filter applied.

The other KPIs available are shown in the table below.

Facility map

The facility map shows you the facilities across your fulfillment network. Selecting a facility displays basic facility information and, if you have the required permissions, provides a link to the order overview for that facility.

The sidebar navigation allows you to access different sections of Backoffice.

Depending on your user role and permissions, and what's been applied in the remote configuration, you can see different sections in the sidebar navigation.

Clicking on the name of the section or the expand arrow will show all sub-sections within the section that you can navigate to.

Below is the list of sections in Backoffice in the default order, assuming you have full access and all features added.

  • Order management

    • Order overview: Monitor and manage orders and order status across the network.

    • Returns: Monitor and manage returns across the network.

  • Order routing

    • Routing strategy: Define routing configurations to select the ideal facility for fulfillment.

    • Routing simulation: Simulate routing in Backoffice to validate routing behavior and analyze performance.

At the bottom of the sidebar, you'll find three more options:

  • Settings: Manage network-wide settings.

  • Customize sidebar: Remove sections from the sidebar and reorder the sections based on how often you use them. You can reset these changes at any time.

  • Help: Access our documentation.
