Order Statuses
Orders move through a lifecycle as they are processed and fulfilled.

Order Details
To view an order, click on the order in the orders list. Once you click on an order, you will be taken to the order details page. The order details sidebar includes full customer and shipping information.

Managing Order Status
Depending on the order state, you can perform different actions:
-
If Confirmed:
- Mark as Processing
- Cancel the order
-
If Processing:
- Mark as Shipped

Once the order is marked as Shipped, it can no longer be cancelled. The buyer will need to confirm receipt to complete the order, or they can open a dispute if there are any issues with the order.
Cancellations & Refunds
If an order is cancelled before it is marked as shipped, the following occurs:
- Full Refund - Cancelling an order issues a full refund to the buyer
- Inventory Reset - Cancelled items are returned to your store inventory
- Finality After Shipping - Once an order is marked as shipped, it can no longer be cancelled by either party
