How to use the Dashboard
The Dashboard is your control room: the order queue, alerts that need action, fulfillment efficiency stats, and your most recent orders.
- 1
In the sidebar, click Dashboard (it's also the page you land on after login).
- 2
Set up OrderKrab - until setup is done, a checklist at the top walks you through it: review your sender details, connect your store, connect your carrier account, switch delivery on for a country, check that rates reach your checkout, set up automatic label printing, print your first label, and invite a teammate. Each item has a shortcut button. Items marked Optional don't count towards the progress, and Dismiss hides the card.
- 3
Alert banners at the top tell you what needs action: orders needing attention, active fulfillments left unfinished, or missing store/carrier connections - each with a shortcut button.
- 4
ORDERS IN QUEUE shows how many orders still need fulfilling, per shop and per status. Click any status block to jump to the Orders page filtered by that status.
- 5
Start Pick and Pack launches a packing session straight from the Dashboard.
- 6
Fulfillment Efficiency shows fulfilled orders, average fulfillment time, and average order turnaround for the current month, plus a 30-day chart. Click View full analytics for more.
- 7
Recent Orders lists your five newest orders - click a row to open it, or All Orders for the full list.
- 8
Click the gear icon in the header to open Dashboard Settings: choose which statuses count toward the queue and which columns Recent Orders shows, then click Save.
