Deleted Orders

The Deleted Orders page in the app provides a reliable way to manage and audit orders that have been removed from the active order list. Rather than permanently deleting data, the app applies a soft delete status, ensuring historical visibility and data recovery when needed.

This feature helps recover from manual errors and re-engage orders that require further fulfillment or exception handling.

Use this page to:

  • Keep the Orders view focused on active workflows

  • Restore orders that were removed by mistake

  • Maintain an audit trail for compliance and operational review

  • Filter and search deleted orders efficiently using key fields


Deleted Orders Logic

Orders deleted in the app are soft deleted by default. This means the order object remains in the system, marked with a "deleted" status, but is removed from the main Orders list. This approach helps:

  • Prevent the same order from being re-imported after deletion

  • Preserve the original order history and metadata

  • Maintain system stability and data integrity

If you need to hard delete an order to allow re-importing it from the source system, submit a support request and include the External Order ID.


Restoring Deleted Orders

The Restore option allows users to recover mistakenly deleted orders and resume their processing workflow:

  1. Go to Orders → Deleted Orders in the main navigation.

  2. Check the corresponding orders from the table and click Restore Orders.

What happens during restoration:

  • The order is returned to the main Orders view.

  • The order’s status reverts to its state before deletion (e.g., "ready_to_fulfill").

  • All associated data (shipping, exceptions, etc.) is reactivated.

  • The order is available for continued processing through normal workflows.

Soft Delete vs. Hard Delete

A soft delete marks an order as "deleted" in the system, but preserves all related data. Soft-deleted orders:

  • Are removed from the main Orders view

  • Remain visible in the Deleted Orders page

  • Can be restored to their previous status at any time

  • Retain all associated data (e.g., exceptions, shipping requests)

This behavior supports error recovery, compliance, and operational transparency.

While a hard delete permanently removes the order from the system. This action is not available through the user interface and is rarely performed. It is used only in specific scenarios where the order must be re-imported from an external system.
