# Delay Order Exports for B2C Stores

To await the results of asynchronous actions on an order, you can delay order exports.

1. Set a delay time in minutes for an order export.
    1. In Business Manager, click App Launcher ![App Launcher](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-cc-b2c_merchandiser_administrator-264-0-0-production-enus/ea76f372-6cfa-42a6-8e7c-05c6df7abed8/cc/b2c_merchandiser_administrator/images/appLauncher.png), and then select **Merchant Tools** | **Site** | **Site Preferences** | **Order**.
    2. On the Order Preferences page, specify the **Order Export Delay** in minutes.
    3. Specify the **Order Edit Export Delay**, which is the number of minutes to delay the order export after it's been opened for editing.
2. Implement the order export delay that you set in Business Manager.
    1. Select **Use Order Export Delay** in the ExportOrders job step.
        
        See [Job Step ExportOrders](https://salesforcecommercecloud.github.io/b2c-dev-doc/docs/upcoming/jobstepapi/html/index.html?target=jobstep.ExportOrders.html).
    2. The date after which an order can be exported is reflected in `dw.order.Order.getExportAfter()`.
        
        See [get ExportAfter](https://salesforcecommercecloud.github.io/b2c-dev-doc/docs/current/scriptapi/html/index.html?target=class_dw_order_Order.html#dw_order_Order_getExportAfter_DetailAnchor).
