Creating replenishment orders from the Orders tab
You can create Assembly Orders, Purchase Orders, and Transfer Orders directly from the Orders tab without switching to the Line Items tab.
Steps
- Go to Operations → Sales Order Grid and open the Orders tab.
- Select one or more sales orders using the checkboxes. (Off-page "select all remaining" is not supported for this action — select orders on a single page.)
- Open the Actions menu and choose Bulk Actions.
- Click Create Assembly Order, Create Purchase Order, or Create Transfer Order.
- A line-items picker dialog opens, showing every SKU line across the selected orders, grouped by order number.
- Tick the individual lines you want to include. You can use the Select all checkbox at the top, or the per-order checkboxes to select all lines within a single order.
- Click Continue (the button shows the count of selected lines). Luminous creates the order using the selected lines.
Notes
- Lines start unchecked — you must explicitly select the lines you want. This prevents accidentally submitting lines that cannot be built (e.g. SKUs without a bill of materials).
- This action is only available when you have orders selected on the current page. If you have used "Select remaining X orders" (cross-page selection), the action will show a message asking you to limit your selection to a single page.
- The downstream order-creation logic is identical to what the Line Items tab uses, so all the same rules apply (BOM requirements for assembly orders, preferred-vendor defaults for purchase orders, etc.).
