Flagged Orders help ensure that no delayed, stuck, or problematic orders slip through the cracks, giving you a way to quickly address issues and keep jobs moving smoothly.
Why We Built Flagged Orders
Managing a large volume of orders can be challenging, especially when some orders take longer than expected or fall into production statuses that may signify a potential issue with the order. Flagged Orders provide a proactive way for you to monitor and take action on these orders, preventing delays and improving your office efficiency.
Instead of manually tracking aging or at-risk jobs, you can simply filter for Flagged Orders and take immediate action when needed.
How Flagged Orders Work
When an order meets certain criteria (like being in production too long or entering a stalled status), SpecCheck automatically flags it and displays a red flag in your Orders Overview. You can find flagged orders easily by selecting the “Flagged Orders” filter on the Orders Overview page.
Customizable
You can adjust how long an order stays “In Progress” before it gets flagged:
Go to Settings → Flagged Orders Threshold Days
Choose a threshold from 3 to 30 days
Orders that exceed this window will be flagged automatically
What You Can Do Once Flagged
Once an order is flagged, you have three options:
Leave it flagged to monitor it
Remove the flag if the order no longer needs attention (note: flags can’t be re-added manually)
Update the order’s status to Shipped or Canceled if it got stuck due to a data issue
Tip: Use the Starred Orders feature if you still want to track an order after removing the flag.
