Manage customer holds

Find out the different types of customer holds and how the app treats them.

Oct 15, 2025

Overview

The Account Hold lets you temporarily restrict specific customers from placing orders online. When a customer is on hold, they can still browse your catalog, but will not be able to submit new orders through the web or mobile app. 

As part of your onboarding, we've configured holds to align with your ERP settings. However, because the Cut+Dry app syncs with your ERP at different times of the day, there is potential for a hold addition or removal to be delayed. Therefore, you can manually override the holds in our system at any time. 

Customers with accounts on hold see a persistent banner in their portal that clearly indicates their account is on hold—helping increase visibility and reduce confusion.

Tip: For any questions or for assistance with holds, please contact Cut+Dry support.
 

Explore these sections to learn how to manage account holds and understand how Cut+Dry handles different hold types.
