# Order

> Understand the seller view over Darwin requests, deals, fulfillment, outcomes, and transactions.

Supply uses **order** as the operator-friendly view of seller work. The canonical records remain Darwin resources:

| Resource    | Purpose                                                               |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Request     | An inquiry, negotiation item, or decision requiring attention.        |
| Deal        | Reviewed scope, price, timing, counterparties, and fulfillment terms. |
| Transaction | Reserved, captured, settled, released, refunded, or disputed funds.   |
| Outcome     | Delivery state and approved evidence of completion.                   |

Orders are grouped into negotiating, in progress, completed, or lost states for operational scanning. Open the order before acting to read its current canonical status and timestamps.

A discoverable listing never implies automatic acceptance. The seller still reviews the deal and completes the required approval and fulfillment steps.
