Before an order can change from 1100, GM needs to conduct a consensus. The first one of those happened just a few days ago so no orders up until that point changed from 1100. The consensus tells GM and dealers how many cars they are going to produce in the next month. From there, GM adds on any constraints and each dealer is told they can order x number of cars or certain types (say 1LT, 2LS, 0SS, 12SS or whatever). At that point, the dealer decides what they want (or what orders are going to be filled). Then, the status can start changing. Make sense?
