FAQ - Orders & Status
Which orders are displayed in My Account?
My Account displays all standard orders, deliveries free of charge and consignment fill-ups related to your customer account.
Which order / delivery status are available in My Account?
We distinguish between the status of your entire order and the status of the ordered materials.
Once an order has reached WACKER and was entered into our systems, it’ll be shown as open . During further processing, the quantity and delivery date will be checked, and an order confirmation will be issued. From this point onwards, the order items will switch to the status confirmed .
After the goods have left our plant, the status will be updated to dispatched . Completed means the goods have reached your plant.
The overall status is derived from the item status. If all items are open, the overall status is open as well. As soon as the first item is confirmed , the overall status changes to processing . Here it remains until all order items are completed .
In exceptional cases, orders and / or order items can be cancelled as well.
Which document can be accessed on the order pages and how?
On each order details page users can download all the product data sheets listed below:
Plus, order / delivery related documents (all once available)

My order stays in the status open for a long time. Is this correct?
Due to the current allocation, it might happen that it takes us longer than usual to confirm your orders. Our teams are working at full speed on the renewed availability of goods and ask for your understanding in the meantime.

Please note that not all transportation types offer the tracking functionality.
