Orders & sales
Quotes, orders, invoices, shipments, and credit memos.
The sales pipeline turns a cart into an order and tracks fulfillment + billing.
The flow
- Quote — the shopper's cart. Items, totals, applied discounts.
- Order — created at checkout from the quote. Has a status lifecycle.
- Invoice — captures payment for an order (or part of it).
- Shipment — fulfills items.
- Credit memo — refunds/returns against an invoiced order.
Working with orders
Query orders and their lines, addresses, totals, and history via the queries reference; transition state and create invoices/shipments/credit-memos via the mutations reference. Orders are org-scoped — you only ever see your store's orders.
Stock & holds
Placing an order can hold/decrement inventory for stock-managed products. See Inventory & stock for how the stock gate decides what's enforced.
