Bulk module
Process in one operation what would take a morning by hand: mass label printing, batch updates, scheduled exports.
The Bulk module unlocks bulk operations in OstraOS: actions applied at once to a large set of orders or objects, rather than one by one. Designed for high-volume farms, it turns a morning of repetitive clicks into a single operation. It is one of the modules with the fastest payback for growers who ship daily.
Who it is for
If your farm handles fewer than ten orders a day, OstraOS' native unit operations are plenty. If you regularly exceed twenty daily orders, or if you have seasonal peaks (year-end celebrations, high-demand periods), the Bulk module becomes a significant productivity lever. Expect several hours saved per week during peak season.
Three concrete use cases
- Bulk label printing: launch in one operation the printing of health and commercial labels for all of today's orders, rather than opening each order individually.
- Batch actions on active orders: move several orders from Confirmed to In preparation, or from Ready to Shipped, filtered by customer, carrier or date.
- Advanced filter then act: for instance pick every order from a retail chain for the current week, and apply a common action (printing, EDI file generation, status update).
Performance and reliability
The module is optimised for large volumes: it fetches only the orders relevant to your filters, without loading your farm's entire dataset. You keep a fluid interface even across hundreds of simultaneous orders. Each bulk action is recorded by name, like any sensitive operation in OstraOS.
Access control
Bulk module access is governed by permissions: only authorised roles can reach it. This is intentional — bulk operations can touch many records at once, and their use should stay in qualified hands (typically your logistician or manager). The administrator can of course adjust these rights user by user.
Remember
The Bulk module is the natural ally of farms processing a high order volume per day. Daily time savings count in hours, not minutes.
