Orders for you, All orders, and Saved explained
Learn what the three tabs on the Small orders page show: Orders for you, All orders and Saved.

Orders for you shows the orders that fit your business and that DLA lets you quote. All orders shows the whole board. Saved holds the orders that you kept.
What each tab shows
Hunter writes one line at the top of the list. For example: "Out of N orders, Hunter has read your profile and matched N orders that fit your domain of work."
Which tab opens first
The board opens on Orders for you. If that tab has nothing, the board opens on All orders instead.
How the tabs differ from the Opportunities page
The tabs look the same as on Opportunities, but they work on different data. Small orders come from DIBBS only. They are not in the opportunities list. See Opportunities for you, All opportunities, and Saved: which list should I use?.
Example
A seller of filters opens Orders for you and sees six orders. The same seller opens All orders and sees many more, such as engine parts. The extra ones do not fit the seller's profile.
What the tabs cannot tell you
- Orders for you relies on the industry codes (NAICS) in your profile. If your profile has none, the tab says "Nothing today fits your business profile." Add them in My Business. See How do I read and change Your trade codes?.
- A thin day is normal. DLA posts new orders often.
- A match is not permission. The order page says if DLA lets you quote. See Check whether DLA lets you quote an order.
β What to do next: Choose the parts that you sell. See Tell Hunter which parts or product categories you sell.
