Use cases

How teams put Order Command to work.

Two industries. Two vocabularies. The same problem: every order, every vendor, every return — scattered across an inbox no one wants to log into. Here's how costume buyers on TV productions and procurement leads at residential design firms run their week on Order Command.

For costume teams · TV productions

Built for the way set buyers already work.

A hundred boxes a week. Nine credit cards. A paper calendar taped to the wall and an Excel sheet everyone has open at once. Costume teams have invented their own tracking system — Order Command just gives it a home.

50/day

What changes

Three things you stop doing by hand on day one.

01 — Card reconciliation

Every card is a color — every order is tagged.

9 cards · color legend

  • Card 4421 · Lead18 items
  • Card 1108 · Supporting12 items
  • Card 2256 · Background27 items
  • Card 9097 · Stunt4 items

Assign a tag color to each Cachét card. Filter the orders list by color to reconcile any card in seconds. The 9-card week becomes one page.

Every credit card is assigned a colored dot. We're very visual.

02 — Return radar

Never miss a return window on a $4K item.

Every order shows its return-by date the moment it ships. Refund-pending alerts are on the roadmap — flagged the day a customer called it 'a dream of mine.'

That is like a dream of mine.

03 — Digital closet

Every character has a closet that builds itself.

Eleanor — Lead

tag · 24 items · 3 fittings

  • Wide-leg trouser · Khaitedelivered
  • Silk camisole · Vincein transit
  • Ankle boot · Aquazzurafitting
  • Trench · Burberryreturn

Tag orders by character and the cumulative closet appears automatically — every fitting, every alteration, every replacement piece. Searchable across episodes.

It's almost like you're creating a digital closet of everything that character has got.

Asset threshold

Every show has a number. Anything over it is an asset.

Set the threshold for the production — a common one is $450. Filter the orders list by price and only the items that count as assets surface. Track the refund, watch the return window with extra scrutiny, and never lose a high-value piece in the noise.

  • Filter by price > threshold to isolate every asset in seconds
  • Bulk-tag the filtered set as “Asset” — accountants get a clean view
  • Export just the asset list for reconciliation or insurance

What costume teams pushed us to build

Shipped because a designer said it out loud.

  • Color-coded calendar tags so card reconciliation finally lives in one view
  • Return windows that count down — refund verification on the roadmap
  • Centralized show inbox with cross-buyer dedupe so two assistants never log the same order
  • Per-show data isolation — delete everything at wrap with one switch
