Cancel an Order

When a customer no longer wants their purchases or when a CSR entered the wrong coupon code or forget the code altogether and the customer didn't get the rebate to which they were entitled, you need to cancel the order. Follow the steps below to cancel the order and all its shipments at the same time.

Canceling an order

1. Locate the order. If you know the order number, go to Order > Orders or Order > Search. Once you have found the order, double-click to select it.

You can also use the customer record to find the order. Open the Customer Details panel and click the Orders tab. Click the order you wish to cancel, then click the View order details arrow, in the lower-right corner of the tab.

The Order Details panels is displayed.

2. Click the button in the bottom left corner of the panel.

If the order contains multiple shipments, this procedure will cancel all of them at the same time. The Cancel button is disabled if at least one of the shipments cannot be canceled. If you wish to cancel the rest of the order, you must cancel each remaining shipment manually.

If all shipments in the order can be canceled, the Request Order Status Change dialog appears.
