Ch. 004b. Site Order History

In this chapter:

This chapter describes the information and options available to you, as a site Admin, in your site’s Order History page. The screen below shows an example of an Order History page.

Important Note: For B2C sites, users can view only their own order history. For B2B sites, depending on permission settings (set in Ch. 045 Adding/Editing Site Users), it is possible for site users to see more than just their own history (all site order history).
