Orders & Carts

Commerce uses a single Order (opens new window) element to represent both an in-progress cart and a completed order. Whenever we use the terms “cart” and “order,” we’re talking about the same underlying object—but in two different states.

The lifecycle of an order element looks something like this:

  1. A customer visits your site and is assigned an order number;
  2. Items (purchasables) are added to the cart as line items;
  3. Additional information is collected to satisfy your checkout requirements;
  4. Payment is submitted, completing the order;

However, not all carts will become orders in this way! Commerce also allows store managers to create carts from the control panel; checkout without payment (or with partial payment) is possible via configuration; carts can be abandoned; or a cart can be manually completed via the control panel.

As a type of element, orders use a familiar management interface, including sophisticated permissions, statuses, and custom fields.

# Configuration

The functionality of carts and orders is mostly consistent across Commerce projects, but there are a few ways you can customize them to suit your business needs.

# Store Settings

Each store has the following settings (accessible via

  1. Commerce
  2. System Settings
  3. Stores
  4. Choose a Store
  5. Settings tab
):

  • Auto Set New Cart Addresses, Auto Set Cart Shipping Method Option, Auto Set Payment Source — Whether the respective information should be automatically attached to new carts, for logged-in customers.
  • Allow Empty Cart On Checkout, Allow Checkout Without Payment, Allow Partial Payment On Checkout, Require Shipping Address At Checkout, Require Billing Address At Checkout, Require Shipping Method Selection At Checkout — Choose what requirements a cart must meet to be completed by a customer.
  • Free Order Payment Strategy — Enable only when using a gateway that supports zero-total transactions.
  • Minimum Total Price Strategy — How Commerce handles potentially-negative order totals.
  • Use Billing Address For Tax — By default, Commerce uses the shipping address to calculate taxes. If your store sells only virtual/digital goods, enable this.
  • Validate Business Tax ID as Vat ID — Whether addresses’ Organization Tax ID field must be validated as a VAT ID (opens new window).

A store’s settings only govern carts and orders created and completed within them.

# Global Configuration

Additional settings are available via the global config file:

  • activeCartDuration — How long carts are considered “active.”
  • purgeInactiveCarts — Whether inactive cart elements should be deleted during routine garbage collection.
  • purgeInactiveCartsDuration — How long before an inactive cart is eligible for purging. This is the total time since the last update to the cart, not in addition to the activeCartDuration.
  • loadCartRedirectUrl — Where a customer will be redirected after loading a previous cart into their session.
  • validateCartCustomFieldsOnSubmission — Whether custom fields on a cart are validated whenever it is updated. Enable with caution, as this can affect customers’ ability to add products to their cart without first submitting required field values.

# Field Layout

Orders have a dedicated field layout, which can be used to collect additional information from customers, or to hold information about fulfillment and other back-office processes.

# Carts

As a customer or store manager is building a cart, the goal is to maintain an up-to-date list of items with their relevant costs, discounts, promotions, and metadata. For this reason, the cart will be recalculated each time a change is made.

Once a cart is completed, however, it becomes an order that represents choices explicitly finalized by whoever completed the cart. The order’s behavior changes slightly at this point: the customer will no longer be able to make edits, and changes made by a store manager will not automatically trigger recalculation.

Carts and orders are managed per-store. A customer may have multiple active carts in different stores, each with discrete contents—the cart Commerce loads automatically for a customer depends on what site they’re viewing, in the front-end.

Customers can also switch between active carts for a given site.

Carts and orders are both listed on the Orders index page in the control panel, where you can further limit your view to active carts (updated in the last hour), and inactive carts (older than an hour). You can customize this time limit using the activeCartDuration setting.

Craft automatically deletes inactive carts after 90 days. Disable purging with the purgeInactiveCarts setting, or fine-tune the delay with purgeInactiveCartsDuration.

Your customers’ experience of the cart and checkout can be tailored to your project.

Dive into developing cart management experiences in Twig.

Use of carts and orders is deeply connected to other Commerce features like addresses, shipping, tax, and so on.

# Orders

An order is a type of element that underpins the shopping and checkout experience, in addition to supporting the wide array of content and query features. You can browse orders in the control panel by navigating to

  1. Commerce
  2. Orders
.

When a cart becomes an order, the following things happen:

  1. The dateOrdered order attribute is set to the current date.
  2. The isCompleted order attribute is set to true.
  3. The default order status is set on the order and any emails for this status are sent.
  4. The order reference number is generated for the order, based on the Order Reference Number Format setting for the store it was placed in.

Instead of being recalculated on each change like a cart, the order will only be recalculated if you manually trigger recalculation.

Adjustments for discounts, shipping, and tax may be applied when an order is recalculated. Each adjustment is related to its order, and can optionally relate to a specific line item.

If you’d like to jump straight to displaying order information in your templates, check out the cart and orders development sections, then review the craft\commerce\elements\Order (opens new window) class reference for a complete list of available methods and properties.

# Order Numbers

There are three ways to identify an order: by order number, short order number, and order reference number.

# Order Number

The order number is a 32-character, alphanumeric hash generated when the cart cookie is first created. It exists even before the cart is saved in the database, and remains the same for the entire life of the order. Order numbers are not sequential!

{{ order.number }}
{# -> 706ffb9c4fa439977908f6a4ad0287af #}

This is different from the order reference number, which is only generated after a cart has been completed and becomes an order.

Use the order number in situations where orders are displayed without authentication—like in a route segment for a template that displays order details after checkout. See the development page for an example of a route and template used to display guest orders.

# Short Order Number

The short order number is the first seven characters of the order number. This is short enough to still be (statistically) unique, but marginally easier for customers to process—although not as friendly as the order reference number.

{{ order.shortNumber }}
{# -> 706ffb9 #}

# Order Reference

The order reference is generated upon completing a cart using the store’s Order Reference Number Format in

  1. Commerce
  2. System Settings
  3. Stores
. It is intended to be a customer-facing alternative to the 32-digit alphanumeric order number.

{{ order.reference }}

The “Order Reference Number Format” is an object template that’s rendered when the order is completed. It can use order attributes along with Twig filters and functions. For example:

{{ dateCompleted|date('Y') }}-{{ id }}

Output:

2024-43

In this example, {{ id }} refers to the order’s element ID, which is not necessarily sequential (nor predictable in length). If you would rather generate a unique sequential number, a simple way would be to use Craft’s seq() Twig function, which returns the next unique number based on the name parameter passed to it.

The seq() function takes the following parameters:

  1. A key name. If this name is changed, a new sequence starting at one is started.
  2. An optional padding character length. For example if the next sequence number is 14 and the padding length is 8, the output will always be at least that many characters: 00000014. You can change the padding value without disrupting the sequence.

For example:

{{ dateCompleted|date('Y') }}-{{ seq(dateCompleted|date('Y'), 8) }}

Output:

2024-00000023

In this example we’ve used the current year as the sequence name so we automatically get a new sequence, starting at 1, when the next year arrives. You could use the store’s handle (like seq("store-order-#{store.handle}")) to keep sequences unique per-store, or a static key (like seq('order-number')) if you want all orders to occupy the same sequential space.

Sequences are global, so constructing keys that will not collide with others you may use in other fields or templates is essential to avoid gaps.

Order references cannot be relied upon for sorting. Use .orderBy('dateCompleted DESC') if you wish to display orders in reverse-chronological order.

# Creating Orders

An order is typically created when a customer adds items to their cart and then checks out. Orders can also be created in the control panel by users with the “Manage Orders” permission.

To create a new order, navigate to

  1. Commerce
  2. Orders
, and choose New Order. This will create a new order that behaves like a cart—as line items are added to and removed from the order, it will automatically recalculate totals and apply matching discounts and other adjustments. Select a customer and populate the Billing Address and Shipping Address to ensure prices (including tax and shipping) can be calculated accurately.

To complete the order, press Mark as completed.

# Custom Line Items 5.1.0+

In addition to selecting from the store’s available purchasables, store managers can create ad-hoc custom line items to represent one-off fees or other order contents.

Custom line items behave exactly the same as line items based on a purchasable, except that their type property is custom, and they do not track a purchasableId. Therefore, their other attributes are never be “refreshed” from a purchasable, they will never be “out of stock,” and they will not be part of the pricing catalog.

Shipping, tax, and other adjustments can still affect custom line items! Any rules and conditions that specify product types, relationships, or other qualities that depend on a preexisting purchasable will never match a custom line item.

# Editing Orders

Completed orders can be edited in the control panel by visiting the order edit page and choosing Edit.

While editing the order, it will refresh subtotals and totals and display any errors. It will not automatically recalculate the order based on system rules like shipping, taxes, or promotions. Choose Recalculate order to have it fully recalculate including those system rules.

Once you’re happy with your changes, choose Update Order to save it to the database. Updating an order after it is completed does not automatically charge or refund the customer! You must take these actions explicitly via the Transactions tab.

# Order Totals

Every order includes a few important totals:

  • order.itemSubtotal is the sum of the order’s line item subtotal amounts.
  • order.itemTotal is the sum of the order’s line item total amounts.
  • order.adjustmentsTotal is the sum of the order’s adjustments.
  • order.total is the sum of the order’s itemSubtotal and adjustmentsTotal.
  • order.totalPrice is the total order price with a minimum enforced by the Minimum Total Price Strategy store setting.

Note that total can be negative!

# Recalculating Orders

Let’s take a closer look at how carts and orders are recalculated.

A cart or order is always in one of three calculation modes:

  • Recalculate All — Active for incomplete carts and orders. This mode refreshes each line item’s details from the related purchasable and re-applies all adjustments to the cart. In other words, it rebuilds and recalculates cart details based on information from purchasables and how Commerce is configured. This mode merges duplicate line items and removes any that are out of stock or whose purchasables were deleted.
  • Adjustments Only doesn’t touch line items, but re-applies adjustments on the cart or order. This can only be set programmatically and is not available from the control panel.
  • None — Skips recalculation entirely; active only on completed orders. Only manual edits or admin-initiated recalculation can modify order details.

Cart/order subtotals and totals are computed values that always reflect the sum of line items. A few examples are totalPrice, itemTotal, and itemSubtotal.

You can manually recalculate an order by choosing “Recalculate order” at the bottom of the order edit screen:

This will set temporarily the order’s calculation mode to Recalculate All and trigger recalculation. You can then apply the resulting changes to the order by choosing “Update Order”, or discard them by choosing “Cancel”.

# Order Notices

Notices are added to carts and orders in circumstances where it or the store’s state results in unexpected changes:

  • A previously-valid coupon or shipping method was removed from the order;
  • A line item’s purchasable was no longer available so that line item was removed from the cart;
  • A line item’s sale price changed for some reason, like a sale ending;

Each notice is an OrderNotice (opens new window) model, containing a customer-facing description of what changed, and a corresponding craft\commerce\elements\Order (opens new window) attribute.

# Statuses

When a cart is completed, it is assigned the default order status for the store it was placed in, and any relevant emails are sent via the queue.

Order Statuses
Design a custom order management workflow for your store.

# Status Emails

If status emails are set up for a newly-updated order status, messages will be sent when the updated order is saved.

You can manually re-send an order status email at any time. Navigate to an order’s edit screen, then select the desired email from the Send Email menu in the toolbar.

# Querying Orders

You can fetch carts and orders in your templates or PHP code using order queries.

{# Create a new order query #}
{% set myOrderQuery = craft.orders() %}

Once you’ve created the query, you can set parameters on it to narrow down the results, and then execute it by calling .one() or .all() to return one or more order elements.

See Element Queries in the Craft docs to learn about how element queries work.

The customer’s current cart is accessible in most Twig contexts via craft.commerce.carts.cart. In some situations (like order status emails), an order variable will be automatically populated with the correct order. Ad-hoc queries are typically only necessary when displaying inactive carts, a customer’s order history, or for generating custom reports.

# Example

We can display an order with a given order number by doing the following:

  1. Create an order query with craft.orders().
  2. Set the number parameter on it.
  3. Fetch the order with .one().
  4. Output information about the order as HTML.
{# Get the requested order number from the query string #}
{% set orderNumber = craft.app.request.getQueryParam('number') %}

{# Create an order query with the 'number' parameter #}
{% set myOrderQuery = craft.orders()
  .number(orderNumber) %}

{# Fetch the order #}
{% set order = myOrderQuery.one() %}

{# Make sure it exists #}
{% if not order %}
  {% exit 404 %}
{% endif %}

{# Display the order #}
<h1>Order {{ order.getShortNumber() }}</h1>
<!-- ... -->
