Was this information Helpful?

I have a very simple question: after payment is in and the goods have been shipped, we set the order state to complete.

However they still appear in active orders, which looks a bit confusing. I noticed that checkout and canceled orders don't appear in active orders, is there a way to make completed orders disappear as well?

Thanks!

Re: Simple question about complete orders

At the moment, that isn't possible. It's due to the way order states are being used to categorize order statuses. "Completed" is part of the order workflow whereas "In checkout" and "Canceled" orders are considered removed from it. Changing the completed state would affect several other parts of the code (like reports, select boxes, etc.) that I think would be better to have how they are now.
