Questions

Can my agent take payment or confirm an order?

No. It drafts the order and tells the customer your team will follow up. Confirming, payment and cancelling are your team's steps.

I made a question required. Why did an order arrive without the answer?

Required means your agent asks before it drafts the order. A customer can still decline or not answer, and the order is saved anyway, marked Missing answers, so you never lose it.

The customer changed their answer in the chat. Why didn't the order change?

So that a later message never silently overwrites what your team agreed. The new answer waits under Customer later said; choose Use this or Keep current.

Can I ask a question only for some items?

Yes. In the question's Where to ask tab, pick the items under Only for these items, with or without All orders.

Can I create an order from the Orders tab?

No. Open the customer's contact and choose Create order.

Can I delete an order?

No. Cancel it instead: choose Cancelled as its next status.

Does the customer get a message when I confirm or complete an order?

No. Changing an order's status sends the customer nothing. Message them from the Inbox.

Which currencies can an order use?

Any of the default currencies in Agent settings, one per order: SAR, USD, EUR, GBP, AED, QAR, OMR, BHD, KWD, JPY, EGP, JOD, CAD, AUD, CHF, INR, TRY, PKR and CNY.
