The Order is being progressed based on the step numbers in the process maps, starting with
booking the Order (Step 1: START: Order Booked) and finishing with matching the TRAX
information (Step 43: TRAX match process/carrier payment).

After Booking the Order in eBS and adding Consolidation code, the Delivery number is
created. The Delivery number automatically transfers to OTM and appears as Order Release.
When an Order Release is created OTM assigns certain status types and status values to it
automatically.
As the Order Release is used for creating shipments and other OTM processes, OTM changes
the status values accordingly.
