2. On the Sales order tab, click on ‘Order holds’.
3. Manually create a new hold by clicking on New or pressing Ctrl+N.
Enter or select the Hold code and any Hold notes as shown below. Comments can also be entered in the header in Order hold header ‘Comments’ field. The Hold user ID and Hold date/time will automatically populate.

4. To clear the order hold in order to release the order for processing, from the Holds button, click on ‘Clear holds’. This will clear the order hold and enable posting of order documents (Confirmation/Pick list/Packing slip/Invoice).
5. An active order hold can also be “checked out” to indicate the order hold is being reviewed by a user. Only the User Id of the user that checked the order hold out can check the order hold back in. If necessary, this can be overridden by users with proper authorization.
From the order holds form, click on the ‘Check out’ button to check an order hold out.
To check an order back in, click on the ‘Clear checkout’ button.
6. To see a history of the order holds and releases for a specific order, including the time, date and user who cleared the hold, from the Order holds form, set the Show field = All (or Cleared).
7. To see all orders on Order hold, go to Sales and marketing -> Common -> Sales orders -> Order hold.
The default is to show ‘Active’ holds (Show = Active)
