Overview

Use 2Checkout's order search capabilities to search for information on purchases/orders your customers/partners made. Order search requires that you have an active 2Checkout account and shoppers/partners have placed at least one order using your buy-links.

Most orders should be available in the search results almost instantly, but there might be situations where it might take up to 15 minutes for an order to be available in search results.

CANCELED Order is canceled.
PAYMENT UNDER REVIEW 2Checkout is currently investigating the order. The payment was approved by the bank but is not recommended to take any action until the final approval from 2Checkout is received.
REJECTED The order has been rejected.
COMPLETE Order is both paid and fulfilled.
AWAITING PAYMENT Order awaits partner payment or, in case partner pays you directly through wire transfer, the order awaits payment confirmation from your side.
DELIVERY NEEDS MORE INFO To complete the fulfillment of the order, more information is needed, such as end user/reseller information or input from the codes generator. If the partner has a credit limit, payment status of the order can be found by checking the proforma invoice status (if proforma is not available, then the order has not been paid). If the partner does not have a credit limit, the order is paid at this point.

Restrict users from running blank & partial eStore order searches

The 2Checkout platform allows all users to run blank or partial order searches by default. This is done through a special role that is activated on all merchant accounts.

To restrict certain users from running blank and partial order searches:

  1. Go to Account Settings and click on User management and then on the Manage button.
  2. On the Users page, select the user you want to restrict and click the Edit button order search_edit button_4.pngto disable the blank & partials searches for that user.
  3. On the Add role page, under the Orders & Reports roles section, uncheck the Blank & partial searches for eStore checkbox.

Orders and Reports

5. Click Save role at the bottom of the page.

Once you disable this privilege, users governed by the role you edited will no longer be able to run blank or partial searches. They will be prompted to enter the full customer or company name/reference/email address in order to search in the Name/Company or Email fields.

Search for orders placed through the purchase order flow

  1. Go to Order Search and click Add filter.
  2. Use the Order flow filter to select the Purchase order.
  3. Click Search.

Search for eStore orders by settled date

If you are a European merchant on the PSP business model (2Sell & 2Subscribe accounts) with the Payout at cashed date option enabled, you can search for orders using the Settled Date filter in the Merchant Control Panel. 

The settled date is the date the order is marked by the system as ready for payout when orders have one of the following statuses:

  • Finished
  • Refund
  • Partial Refund

When searching for orders by Settled date, results return reconciled orders.

If you have multiple accounts and one of the accounts has the 'Payout at cashed date' option enabled, if you select 'Search by Settled date' and 'Aggregate reports for all accounts', your search will return the orders with the settled date.

The 'Search orders by settled date' option is not featured currently in the Order Search Export and Instant Search Export (ISE) but will be added at a later stage.

Merchants who do not meet the above criteria will be prompted with the default Search order view. 

How it works

  1. Log in to your Merchant Control Panel.
  2. Navigate to Orders & customers → Order search
  3. Click on the eStore orders tab.
  4. For the Search by filter, select Settled date.
