| You misunderstood me, I want to change the status of all "paid" orders
with 2 clicks total into "shipped", whether it is 5 orders or 20+ not change
the status per order, one by one . Clicking submit after just one is a little
silly.

| Greetings good citizen of Bricklink forums,
I have been wondering for some time, is there a way to change the "order status"
of multiple orders at once? It would be nice to change all orders that are
packed/paid to "shipped" when the time is right. Is there a way to do this
that I don't see? It gets tedious changing the status one by one.
Thank you!
Cheers,
Captain Q

Okay, I get how we all love that nothing ever changes and that we love to keep
stuff the way it is but seriously, the guy is absolutely right!!!
And I am sure that this is the reason why there are about 100 people in this
forum when the site is used by thousands!
Even though you can click on a million buttons to make it look like you want
it to, it should look like that from the start and not with clicking links on
the bottom of a page every single time you want to read something.
The studio beta forum is what a normal forum should look like. It's been
invented... probably about 25 years ago!

All you have to do is set up a page with the setting you like and then save it
as a favorite up on your favorites bar and you wont have to keep clicking on
the options. Just do it once and all is well.
As far as changing the way it looks, I am all for that. I love the changes BL
has done so far. The only reason I kind of got on the guys case was because he
was complaining (with more of an attitude) about things that need to be changed
but was not even willing to see if the options he wanted already existed. He
complained even before he took just a couple of minutes to learn what options
existed.

It didn't do it for you on the old BrickLink so I am not sure how it is "WAY
more work." With the new "have" feature, which BrickLink is still fixing a few
bugs on, it's actually WAY easier to keep track of everything.

It most certainly did. After completing a purchase, there was a button to "Remove
items from Wanted List". Worked like a charm. I used it (literally) hundreds
of times.

You mean the "See items in order on wanted list" which would bring up all the
wanted list items in your order and then you could delete them if you wanted?

Because that can be switched on and off in your settings and can be accessed

Thank you for your help, and thank you for having the vintage pieces I needed
to recreate my police boat from 1978. I thought I had dealt with you in the past.
I did have to turn that function on in my settings. It still doesn't do
what I expect it to. I got a chance last night to try it out. I think I'm
throwing an extreme situation at this new BUY function, and my expectations are
way too high. I'm trying to build 5 of the 7 Speed Racer vehicles. I have
them on 4 separate wanted lists. 300+ pieces in 86 lots, with identical lots
on several of them. This is what I had to go through to adjust everything....
Followed the link provided after purchase to the "Search Wanted List" page...
Manually adjusted several quantities (took notes on the partial quantities before
i placed the order). Broke the list into four pages. 100 items per page option
would have come in handy. Had to make sure I saved each individual page.
Then.. apply each of the four wanted lists (will only apply ONE list or ALL,
no option for multiple... check boxes would be handy here). Or at least I thought
so. It doesn't work correctly. I had one list selected, and it showed entries
for ALL of my wanted lists. Not just the ones present in this order. That caught
me by surprise. That wasn't very common (3 lots), but it could have been
very irritating on those future projects. After catching that, and thinking I
had a grasp on this, I realize that I had hit the delete button and had failed
to "un-check" the partial qty lots that I had just adjusted. Went back and fixed
that..
It just seems to me like all the information is there, and it's not being
used efficiently. The quantity’s that I ordered are there. I don't understand
why I can't be done with fewer steps. Not gonna mess with a "have" function.
Have and % of completion are useless to me and will surely irritate me even more.
I don't need Bricklink to keep track of what i have. If I need 20 of something,
and I buy 15 from a vendor, all I need is for the WANT qty to change to 5. I
think that’s pretty simple. I spent a couple of hours last night trying to figure
this out. I feel like I'm spending an extensive amount of time doing something
that BrickLink should be able to do in seconds. That means less time to shop
and spend money.
I do admit, this is the most complicated order I've ever made. I think my
high hopes and expectations for the BUY function coaxed me into it. It wouldn't
be this difficult if I had chosen to purchase ONLY full quantities, AND not had
so many identical lots scattered throughout several wanted lists. Then it would
work pretty similar to old version and I wouldn't be whining.

Now, you have the option of applying an order to a wanted list. On the new Wanted
List page, select the wanted list in question, and then click the Apply Order
button at the top of the list.
|
The "Apply Order" button seems to assume that I only order for one wanted list
at a time. Also, for some reason is does not seem to work always but I have not
tested that more.
At the same time the "Items in order on wanted list" has gained a bug and gives
incomplete results.

| My understanding is that eCheck can happen when the buyer chooses to pay with
funds in their bank account, or the PayPal account doesn't have enough cash
in it.
So far after a couple of onsite payments both were normal, no eChecks. Had
eCheck's in the past from non-onsite payments. So unless there is some
other bug...it seems fine to me.

IMO it does not make sense at all to use the "Paid" status if payment and order
status is separated. Whoever programmed this PayPal (Onsite) feature either was
not familiar with the separation (and its triggering the action items) or desperately
looked for a solution to block order additions after payment is done. An elegant
solution would be to block order additions if the payment status was set by the
system to "Complete" after payment, regardless of order status. But this
may have required more programming work.
|
I don't want to stir the pot too much, but some people have seen that onsite
payments result in people apparently paying with eCheck. If that bug (if it _is_
a bug) is still there, having the system flip the payment status to "complete"
would not be appropriate for those eCheck payments. In those cases it should
go to "clearing" or somesuch.
Maybe the developer knew this and explicitly avoided "complete" to force the
seller to decide it is complete. Just shooting in the dark here (as most of us
do when it comes to figuring out how new features are meant to work).
