Order Management

What It Is

The «Orders» tab in the Products section (/app/products?tab=orders) serves as your operations command center for customer purchases. Here you can track, search, filter, and modify orders from all connected bots, print official receipts, and analyze repeat purchasing trends.

Order Registry

The order table presents all essential order metrics:

  • Order ID: unique identifier for the transaction.
  • Date & Time: timestamp when the checkout was finalized.
  • Customer: buyer name, contact phone/email, direct link to the live chat thread, and customer profile.
  • Line Items: list of purchased products, quantities, thumbnails, and SKUs.
  • Total Amount: final sum accounting for discounts, shipping fees, and taxes.
  • Status: current order processing state.

Order Status Lifecycle

The system tracks orders through 5 standard lifecycle phases:

Status Code Description
New 0 Just submitted by the customer; awaiting merchant review
Processing 1 Order confirmed; warehouse begins fulfillment (stock is reserved)
Paid 2 Payment verified (online checkout or payment on delivery)
Delivered 3 Successfully handed over to customer or picked up
Cancelled 4 Order rejected or cancelled (reserved inventory is restored)

Changing an order status can automatically trigger a custom customer notification on Telegram (see Custom Status Notifications).

Order Details & Line Item Editing

Clicking any order row slides out the detailed order inspector:

  • Adjust Quantities: increment or decrement the unit count for each item.
  • Add Products: add extra items directly from the catalog if a customer requests additions after placing the order.
  • Remove Items: delete individual positions from the cart.
  • Automatic Recalculation: any modification to order items automatically recalculates subtotals, applied discount percentages, shipping costs, taxes, and the final order total (summa).

Branded PDF Invoices & Receipts

Every order features one-click generation of professional sales receipts formatted for print and digital delivery:

  1. Click the «Receipt PDF» button in the order drawer.
  2. The platform renders a branded PDF containing:
    • Bot logo and title.
    • Company business credentials (from the bot's business profile).
    • Customer details and shipping destination.
    • Itemized goods table: SKU, item title, unit price, quantity, and total.
    • VAT/Tax, discount, and shipping fee calculations.
    • Customized receipt footer note (configured in Settings).

PDFs are generated instantly and optimized for standard A4 printing or direct attachment in customer chats.

Customer Cohorts & Retention Analytics

The «Cohorts» tab delivers actionable customer intelligence:

  • Purchase Frequency Breakdown: segmenting your buyer audience:
    • 1 order: first-time purchasers;
    • 2 orders: returning customers;
    • 3+ orders: loyal core advocates.
  • Average Order Value (AOV) and average orders per buyer.
  • Customer Profiles: select any buyer to inspect their lifetime spending history, frequency, and chronological order records.
