The same features you know and love, but better.

The Order Status tool saves you precious time. And we all know what we could do with more time in a day… With the Order Status Tool, you don’t have to make an extra phone call or send yet another email to check on your order.

The same functionality that made Order Status a fan favorite is still there, but now you can follow-up with multiple POs on a job quickly and easily in Syncore V2. You can now use the tool for all drop ship and corporate jobs with our participating Preferred Suppliers.

You’re only ever three clicks away from finding out the Order Status! And the tools you need to check on valuable status updates are all in one place, making the entire process much more streamlined.

But wait a minute! Before you check on your POs, we don’t want you going in blind. Since we can’t be there to explain the Order Status’ makeover in person, we gave you the next best thing: resources with tips and tricks to get you up to speed.
