What changed
- Investigating
SmartOrder is currently experiencing a performance issue affecting order submissions to Patterson. At this time, Patterson orders submitted through SmartOrder within Cornerstone may fail to complete successfully. Practices are encouraged to place orders directly through the Patterson website or by contacting their Patterson sales representative while we investigate the issue. Our teams are actively investigating and will share updates as more information becomes available.
- Investigating
SmartOrder is currently experiencing two issues affecting IDEXX online ordering in Cornerstone. These are both related to IDEXX integration but are being tracked as distinct problems. At this time, IDEXX orders submitted through SmartOrder within Cornerstone may fail to complete successfully or may need to be retried. This does not appear to affect every order, but online ordering is not fully reliable while we investigate. We are also aware of a separate issue in which IDEXX orders placed outside of Cornerstone (for example, by phone or through IDEXX Online Ordering) are not being sent to SmartOrder so they can be returned to Cornerstone for matching or receiving. Practices are encouraged to place IDEXX orders by phone or through the IDEXX portal when online ordering from Cornerstone is unsuccessful, and to enter those orders manually in Cornerstone until service is restored. Our teams are actively investigating both issues and will share updates as more information becomes available.

- Identified
Practices can still retrieve and process orphan/receiving orders that are already in SmartOrder. New MWI order information is not coming in, and placing new MWI orders is still failing because no response is returned when an order is submitted. We are continuing to work with MWI to restore order placement and order history updates.
- Identified
We are continuing to work on a fix for this issue.
