# Merchant Orders UI Overview

The Dropship **Orders** dashboard is divided into three sections: **Open Orders**, **Reports**, and **Require Attention**. Each section helps you quickly access key information about Dropship orders.

* To navigate to the **Orders** dashboard, login to the Dropship Platform and click **Orders** on the top navigation bar.

Clicking any pre-filtered list or report opens a list view of all orders that match the selected criteria.

## Key Features for Dropship Orders

Dropship Orders allows you to take the following different actions:

* [Creating return requests](/v3/dropship/dropship-retailers/orders/create-a-return) allows you to create a return request against an Order. The supplier associated with that order is notified through an email. The supplier can then **Approve** or **Decline** the return request.
* [Creating purchase orders](/v3/dropship/dropship-retailers/orders/create-purchase-order) allows you to manually create a purchase order.
* [Managing cancellations and backorders](/v3/dropship/dropship-retailers/orders/managing-cancels---backorders) allows you to acknowledge cancellations and backorders from suppliers.
* [Reports](/v3/dropship/dropship-retailers/orders/order-reports/shipment-reports) allow you to view and lookup shipping, cancellation, invoice, credit memo, and return reports for an order. You can filter and export any of these reports.
