If you need to cancel an order, this guide explains how. Two things to note first:

- Once an order has shipped, it can no longer be canceled.
- We do not cancel orders by phone.

## Cancel an order in the Dashboard

Orders placed through the Dashboard, the API, the WooCommerce plugin or Order Desk can be canceled in the Dashboard as long as they are **not yet in production**, that is, while the status is still ‘pending’.

Open the order, click the product, and enter how many items you want to cancel (or use the arrow buttons); confirm with the cancel button. For an order with several products, cancel each product separately. Canceled orders drop off your open-orders list, but you can still find them by searching the reference number.

We process orders all day, so we cannot guarantee a cancellation once an order is already in production.
