How it works

How an Order Moves Through MAO

Manhattan Active® Order Management holds the order from the moment it lands until money settles.

  1. Capture

    Every channel writes to one order record with customer, payment, and promise attached.

  2. Validate

    Payment authorization, fraud screening, and address checks clear before the order can source.

  3. Allocate

    The sourcing engine splits lines across nodes, balancing cost, capacity, and inventory health.

  4. Release

    Work drops to the DC, store, or vendor, with cancel and change windows enforced.

  5. Settle

    Shipment confirmation triggers capture, invoice, and the customer notifications tied to each line.

The challenge

Why Order Management Becomes a Bottleneck

As operations grow, managing orders across systems and channels becomes more complex:

Limited visibility into inventory across locations

Inefficient or delayed order routing

Disconnected systems across eCommerce, stores, and warehouses

Manual intervention in order processing and fulfillment decisions

These challenges slow down fulfillment, increase costs, and impact customer experience.
