Order Statuses

The order statuses used in shopping cart are listed below. After the customer places an order, the order is assigned a New Order status. The status of an order can be changed manually by the system administrator when processing the order.

When changing order status, there is an option to automatically notify the customer about the order status change. This is done by selecting the appropriate settings in Store Settings >> Store Configuration >> Email Notification options. Such email notifications let you inform your customers about the progress of their orders and help raise their level of commitment and loyalty to your online store.

Payment statuses
