From the Single Order page not only can you view all order data, but also edit and update orders placed by a client. When an order goes to “complete” status, this order can no longer be edited.
Here is what you can do in the meantime:
- Change the order status (to anything you need to)
- Edit order items – modify the product, prices, and taxes.
- Order Actions – Email order details to customer (handy if manually creating an order for your customers) or Regenerate download permissions
- Apply coupons. You will need to know the coupon code to apply to the order. Coupon usage counts are tracked, and coupons can also be removed from orders.
Note: the order must have an unpaid status for coupons to have an affect

The Order Details panel you can view:
- Order number
- Payment details (how the student paid)
- Order date and time
