Archiving Orders

When importing orders, you may want to mark them as archived. To do this you'll want to map the closed_at field on the Order Details tab.

Map closed_at field

The closed_at field is a date field and you must map this field like other date fields. Click here to read how you should format your date fields.

Archiving Fulfilled Orders

You may have your store setup to archive fulfilled orders, if this is the case than you'll want to map the closed_at date to the fulfilled at data in your CSV file. When importing your orders this will mark your fulfilled orders as archived.

If you have fulfilled and unfulfilled orders in you CSV file and you only want to mark fulfilled orders as archived, set the closed_at value to blank in your CSV file for all orders that aren't fulfilled. This will ensure your unfulfilled orders aren't archived.

If you have apps installed that send notifications when an order is fulfilled, you may want to archive the orders during import or the notifications will get sent. This may NOT be true for all cases, so we recommend you run tests and audit your apps to ensure no unwanted notifications are sent during your import. Click here to read how to create test orders.
