Amend In-Flight Orders in LWC

Any order that is in the process of fulfillment is referred to as an In-flight order. Using the Amending In-Flight Orders feature, you can modify your order after you've submitted it. It helps you fine-tune your order before order management completes its fulfillment.

  1. From the App Launcher, search for Orders and open it.
  2. From the orders list, open an order to amend.

    The order must be submitted and in the in-progress state.

  3. In the tab for the order, select Amend from the menu.

    You can also select Amend from the Industries Cart for the order.

    Order status

    CPQ creates a supplemental order with the order status set to Ready to Submit. The original order status changes to Amend Requested.

  4. Add, modify, or delete the cart line items. You can also modify, add, or cancel a promotion and discount that applies to a line item.

    You can modify a line item only if it hasn't passed the point of no return (PONR). PONR is a state in the order fulfillment process after which you can't modify an order, including a promotion or discount that applies.

    See In-Flight Amendments.
