DLA small orders

Why no small orders appear for your business

An empty board usually comes from a narrow choice, an empty profile, a quiet day, or an order feed that did not load.

The board shows no orders. The page may say "Nothing today" or "No orders match what you chose." This does not mean that DLA buys nothing for your trade.

Check these causes in order

  1. Your choices are too narrow. The page says "No orders match what you chose." Click Clear what I chose. See Narrow the small-orders board.
  2. Your parts choice is too narrow. The page says "Nothing today for" and your category. Click Change the parts you picked. Or select none. See Tell Hunter which parts or product categories you sell.
  3. Your profile has no industry codes. Orders for you then says "Nothing today fits your business profile." Open All orders. Add your NAICS codes in My Business. See How do I read and change Your trade codes?.
  4. The board does not cover your trade. The board has only parts that DLA buys. Hunter says: "If you sell something else, it will not be here yet."
  5. It is a quiet day. The page says "That is normal. New orders arrive every weekday."
  6. The orders did not load. The page says "Today's orders from DLA did not load. Check again later." Refresh the page. See My feed or detail page did not load.

What you see when it works

The board shows cards under the Hunter note. A thin day shows the note "Not many today. New orders arrive every weekday."

The checklist at the top does not hide orders. You can look at orders while you wait for your registration.
