Duplicate, Archive & Bulk Actions
Beyond editing a single order, TimberCloud gives you a few everyday tools for reusing, tidying, and batch-updating orders: the Options menu on the order page, the Archived view, and bulk actions from the list.
The Options menu
Open any order and click Options to find three actions:
| Action | What it does | Permission needed |
|---|---|---|
| Edit | Switches the page into edit mode so you can change items, prices, and details | — |
| Duplicate | Copies the order into a brand-new one and opens it | Duplicate Order |
| Archive / Unarchive | Moves the order out of the default list (or brings it back) | Archive Order |
Availability: Duplicate and Archive are Build-plan features (they rely on role permissions, which start at Build). Editing an order is available on any paid plan — see Editing an order after it's placed.
Duplicate an order
Duplicate copies the order — its customer, items, options, and configuration — into a fresh order and opens it for you. It's ideal for:
- Reorders — A repeat customer wants the same kitchen or the same run of doors again.
- Templates — You keep a "standard package" order around and duplicate it to start new jobs quickly.
- Corrections on a difficult order — Occasionally the cleanest path is to copy an order and adjust the copy.
The duplicate starts fresh as a new Quote; it doesn't carry over the original's payments or documents.
Archive an order
Archive removes an order from your default list without deleting it — a clean way to get finished, canceled, or abandoned orders out of your daily view while keeping a permanent record. Archiving from the order page returns you to wherever you came from (the customer you were viewing, your filtered list, etc.). To bring an order back, open the Archived view and choose Unarchive (or use Options → Unarchive on the order).
The Archived view
Switch to the Archived view from the Orders list to see everything you've archived. On the Free plan it's labeled Archived Inquiries. The only bulk action here is Unarchive, which returns the selected orders to the active list.
Bulk actions from the list
Tick the checkboxes on one or more rows in the Orders list, then choose a bulk action to apply it to all of them at once. Which actions you see depends on your plan:
| Bulk action | Commerce | Build and up |
|---|---|---|
| Update Status (pick any status) | ✓ | ✓ |
| Mark as Invoiced | ✓ | ✓ |
| Mark as Shipped | ✓ | ✓ |
| Mark as Delivered | ✓ | ✓ |
| Mark In Production | — | ✓ |
| Archive | ✓ | ✓ |
In the Archived view the only bulk action is Unarchive.
Note: There is no "download all documents as a ZIP" bulk action. Documents (Quote / Acknowledgement / Invoice) and print outs are generated and printed per order from the Print Outs tab, where you can multi-select and print several as one merged PDF.
Update Status in bulk
Choosing Update Status opens a small dialog where you pick the target status; it's applied to every selected order. The dedicated "Mark as…" actions are shortcuts for the most common transitions, and they stamp the matching date just like the inline status pill does.
