Would be my suggestion - I know abrufen isn't bestellen, but the need here is for a simple term and I can't think of any other way of putting it.
Low CL because context is minimal - I assume that this refers to orders for goods, not to access to electronic data.

My point is that a simple term is needed in this context - it needs a 1 or 2 word job description, not a lengthy phrase

The Germans are veryat consolidating 2, 2 or 4 words of English into one German word. I don't believe that there is a 1 or 2 word expression in English which does it here.
