What does the "new orders for durable goods" indicator measure?

Cesar

I am confused. I don't seem to understand this indicator. I tried searching it up, but I am still lost. Does this indicator measure the amount of durable goods produced in a month? Or does it mean the amount of durable goods that consumers purchase in a month? Or the amount of products a manufacturer makes in accordance to the orders placed to create that product? I would really appreciate it if anyone answers my question.
