# Ordering for employees (Store Manager)

> Place uniform orders for your store's staff.

The Order for Employee page is your primary ordering interface. It lets you order for one or more employees at your store in a single session.

<Note>
  Navigate to **Order for Employee** from the sidebar under **Store**.
</Note>

## The workflow

The full steps are described in [Placing orders](/orders/placing-orders). As a Store Manager, two details apply specifically to you:

* **Your store is selected automatically** based on your assignment; you choose only a department to filter employees.
* **Employees shown are your store's employees only**, each with their entitlement balances on their card.

## Entitlement balances

Each product card shows the employee's remaining allocation:

* **Allowed**: total quantity the employee is entitled to
* **Consumed**: quantity already ordered in the current cycle
* **Remaining**: available for this order

If the remaining balance is 0, the product is employee-paid only.

Unless the client runs in strict mode, employees see every product in their matched rule set — including initial-issue items during replacement cycles (free flow). A product allocated in more than one phase shows the larger quantity. See the [Entitlement engine](/uniform-management/entitlement-engine) for details.

<Warning>
  If the client has **Entitlement Enforcement** enabled (strict mode), company-paid quantities beyond the remaining allocation are blocked. In free flow the excess is ordered as employee-paid instead. Either way, an order can still include employee-paid items.
</Warning>

## After submission

On success, the order enters the pipeline. If the matched rule set requires approval, it goes to **Pending Approval** for HR or Admin to review. You receive notifications as it moves; see [Notifications](/orders/notifications).
