The pick list collects the open orders from your channels and walks you through your storage card by card. Every order gets a box.
Turn it on
Open Pick list and click Turn on pick list. Only channels with Managed Sync are included. Actana reads order number, items and quantity, no names or addresses. 30 days after shipping, Actana deletes the order numbers.
For Shopify, your app also needs the “read_orders” permission (read orders). If it’s missing, the pick list shows you how to add it.

Withdrawn and partly withdrawn orders
- When an order is withdrawn, Actana puts the card back into your inventory and tells you where it belongs. If it was marked Not found, it stays removed.
- For a partly withdrawn order you see, for example, Box 2: card withdrawn. Take it out and ship the rest. Put the card back and ship the rest.
- If a box was already packed and the whole order was withdrawn, you see, for example, Box 2 withdrawn. Don’t ship, put the cards back.
