The numbers refresh on their own. The pause button next to the title stops that while you read; press it again to resume.

Reading it in the morning

  1. Total Orders minus Orders in Waves is roughly what is waiting to be waved.
  2. Orders Backordered above zero means something needs receiving or an inactive bin needs reviewing before those orders can go.
  3. On Hold is the pile customer service owns.
  4. Active Waves that are days old are waves someone forgot to complete or reset.
  5. Low Stock Items is a blunt instrument (under 10 units available regardless of velocity); the Replenishment page is the better tool for pick-bin levels.
