Locating Orders and Reviewing Order Details

The details about the orders placed by your store customers are located in the 'Orders' section of the 'Management' menu (Figure 5-39).

Figure 5-39: Order search screen with the list of recent orders

When you access this section, a list of the most recent orders is displayed along with the 'Search orders' form. The list contains a number of most recently placed orders (the number is defined by the 'Amount of orders in the recent orders list' parameter in the 'General settings' section) with the 'Queued' and 'Processed' statuses.

You can use the order search form to see a list of orders that meet other criteria. The following search options are available:

•	Order id - to specify the range of order id's to be displayed, using two data entry fields;

•	E-mail - to specify exact or partial e-mail address of a customer whose orders you are interested in;

•	Order status - to narrow order search to orders with a particular status;

•	Order date from and Order date to - to specify the range of order placement dates.

After you have specified the search options, click on the 'Search' button to see the list of orders that match your criteria.

To see the details of a particular order in the list, click on the corresponding 'details>>' link. The order details page (Figure 5-40) contains all the information pertaining to the order and can be used to print the invoice (by clicking on the 'Print invoice' link located in the lower part of the screen).
