Overview 

There are many situations that call for edits to be made to a customer's order, from shipping service upgrades to order quantity adjustments and product changes. Web Shop Manager allows you to change the following criteria on an order from the Edit Order page: 

  • Customer Account
  • Billing/Shipping Address(es)
  • Shipping Method
  • Tracking Number
  • Product Price
  • Product Quantity
  • Product Options
  • Discount Amount
  • Order Comments

🔎Note: Editing a paid order will not change what the customer was charged at the time of placing the order in question. If the amount charged is incorrect, cancel and refund the affected order and then place a new one with the updated amount.
