Marketplace Order's Acknowledgement:
Users can now reject the marketplace and self-ship orders from a common module i.e. "Order Acknowledgement" and can easily switch between Selfship & Marketplace view using a dropdown.

Hazmat Label for order processing:
Hazardous substances pose a potential risk to health, safety, property, or the environment. Every marketplace defined these materials as Hazmat.
Upon receiving any order for a product labelled as hazmat from the marketplace, the seller can view the information on the Orders detail screen allowing them to attach the correct hazmat label while packing it so that mishandling of the shipment can be avoided.
On the Manage picking screen, if any order line in the shipment contains a Hazmat label, a notification appears on the screen during packing, notifying sellers/ packers that “This Shipment contains hazardous materials, kindly ensure to attach Hazmat Label”.
