Start with the open-order queue
Open Orders to see imported work from included listings. Use store and view controls to focus the queue, then open an order for its listing, customer, due date, and setup details.
Check shipping priority and buyer notes
A Priority shipping badge shows when the buyer selected a shipping upgrade. Overview places those orders first within each due-date or Ready to Ship queue while keeping every order in the correct queue.
- Open the order to see the selected shipping upgrade and marketplace shipping method when it is available.
- Read the buyer note before production or packing; the same note is included on the packing slip when that component is in the print bundle.
- A shipping upgrade changes queue priority, not the order’s workflow stage or ship-by date.
Sort and group the work
Open Sort & group to filter by store, choose the order of the queue, or group open work by order date, ship-by date, listing, listing and variation, or production stage.
Update the stage when work moves forward
Move the order to the matching stage as production progresses. Meldsy stages organize your work; changing a stage does not mark the marketplace order as shipped.
- Keep the order in production while the item is being made.
- In post-production, confirm the material or filament actually used.
- Move it to packing once the item and its inserts are ready.
Record what this order actually used
Meldsy starts with the listing’s recipe. During post-production, review a suggested filament color or choose the actual color used. During packing, customize boxes, mailers, wrap, tape, or other packing supplies for this order without changing the listing defaults.
- Use the workflow menu to move an order back to the previous visible step when the work is not ready.
- An order override affects this order only.
- Confirmed costs and inventory deductions use the final material and packing choices.
Open and check the print bundle
Check the packing information, customer instructions, and shipping label before generating the PDF.
Close, find, and reprint completed orders
Use the workflow menu to close an order after the marketplace has completed it. Closed and canceled orders leave the open production queue but remain available for reference.
- Open the Closed tab and filter by the last week, month, year, or all time.
- Use the store filter and shipped-date sort to find an older order.
- Change the page size or use the page controls when the history is long.
- Choose Reprint bundle on a shipped order whenever you need another copy.
If an expected order is missing
- Confirm the order’s listing is included in Listing selection.
- Remember that an order containing any excluded listing is left out entirely.
- Refresh the correct marketplace shop.
- Check whether the order is open or closed and adjust the order view.
