# Orders

Your customers can place orders for activated products at any time via your customer portal. You can find a history of all orders from hostware under the menu item *`Orders`*.

If there are any orders that require manual action on your part, these will be highlighted in the list above.

## Detail view

In the detailed view, you can see all the information for the order, such as the customer, order date, and payment method, at a glance.&#x20;

If necessary for the entire order or only for individual items, you can approve or reject them. The customer will be informed about the process by email.&#x20;

As soon as an order item has been provided, the hosting and billing are created in the hostware system. The management of the product and its provision via a module takes place in the background and is separate from the order.
