On Your Radar

The On Your Radar widget highlights items that require a Buyer's immediate attention.

The tiles display the number of records that require action. If an Inventory Region is selected, both the tiles and carts display records for that Inventory Region. Otherwise, they display records assigned to the logged-in Buyer. When a Buyer clicks a tile, the corresponding details appear in the widget on the left, allowing the Buyer to review and resolve the records directly.

The carts (tiles) are sorted in descending order, with the ship-to location that has the highest purchase order count displayed first. A scroll bar is available in the cart widget, allowing you to view and select from all available carts rather than only the first three. You can also search for carts by ship-to location to facilitate faster review.
