While a panel page is open, it keeps checking for new orders. You do not need to refresh.
The pop-up on every page
With Enable Global Order Notifications on (Shop › Settings › General Settings), a pop-up opens on whichever page you are on when an order arrives, and a sound plays in a loop.
- The title counts the new orders. Each row shows the customer, the time, and tags such as Self pickup, Delivery, Express, Modified and New customer.
- Select an order to open it. The pop-up lists up to five orders, then a link to the rest.
- The speaker button stops the sound. Dismiss closes the pop-up and stops the sound. View all orders opens the orders list.
An order whose changes the customer approved comes back as new, tagged Modification confirmed.
On the dashboard
The New orders panel fills in by itself and plays the same sound. Use the speaker button to stop the sound for the current alert.
Sound On / Sound Off switches the alert sound off for this browser until you switch it back. It also silences the pop-up on other pages. The choice is stored in the browser, so set it on each device.
On the orders list
The list never jumps while you work. Instead, a green bar appears at the top, for example "2 new orders". Select Show them to reload the list. On a filtered view the bar reads View orders and opens the unfiltered list.
When alerts stop
- If you see Your session has expired, so new orders are no longer appearing., select Sign in again.
- A manager assigned to some locations is alerted only for those locations' orders.
- Check that Sound Off is not selected on the dashboard.
