Order Confirmation

Sana Commerce uses customer's shop account e-mail address to send order confirmation.

To configure order confirmation in Sana Admin click: Setup > Basics > Send order confirmation e-mail.

The table below provides description of the available options:

Option Description
Always send order confirmation e-mails Select this option if you want to send the order confirmation e-mails to the customers. It is used for both, when the order is placed in the webstore and Sana mobile app, if such is used.
Web service orders only Select this option if you want to send the order confirmation e-mails when the orders are placed using the Sana mobile app only. If this option is set, the order confirmation e-mails will be sent to the customers.
Webstore orders only Select this option if you want to send the order confirmation e-mails when the orders are placed in the Sana Commerce webstore only. If this option is set, the order confirmation e-mails will be sent to the customers.
Never send order confirmation e-mails Select this option if you do not want to send the order confirmation e-mails to the customers. It is used to disable the order confirmation e-mails for both, webstore and Sana mobile app, if such is used.
Send order confirmation e-mail to customers when the order is placed by sales agent This option is used in a private store.
For more information about the private store, see 'Basics'.
If this option is enabled, when a sales agent represents a customer, the order confirmation e-mail will be sent to the sales agent (sales agent shop account e-mail) as well as to the represented customer (customer's e-mail in the ERP system). If it is disabled, the order confirmation e-mail will be sent only to the sales agent.

The order confirmation e-mails are sent to different e-mail addresses in different scenarios. To summarize and to have a clear understanding of which e-mail addresses are used for order confirmation e-mails, see all possible scenarios below.

  1. When a customer places an order the order confirmation e-mail is sent to the e-mail address of the customer's shop account in Sana Admin.
  2. When a sales agent places an order on behalf of a business customer, and it is enabled to send order confirmation e-mails to both, it is sent to the e-mail address of the sales agent's shop account in Sana Admin and to the customer's e-mail address in the ERP system.
  3. If a customer in the ERP system has the associated bill-to (invoice) customer account, the order confirmation e-mail is sent to the e-mail address of a customer in ERP and to the e-mail address of the associated bill-to (invoice) customer in ERP.
  4. All order confirmation e-mails are also sent to the e-mail address set in the 'BCC' e-mail addresses field in Sana Admin.

For order confirmation e-mails Sana Commerce uses the 'Order Confirmation' e-mail template, which can be edited in Sana AdminSetup > E-mails.

For more information about e-mail templates, see 'E-mails'.

Order confirmation is sent to a customer when the order is processed and its status is set to Paid.

 NOTE

If a customer pays via Bank transfer payment method the order confirmation is sent to a customer when the order status is set to In progress.

This is because the payment process of the Bank transfer payment method differs. In the Bank transfer payment method, purchasers take the initiative. They send their bank an order to transfer an amount from their account to the account of the seller. Docdata receives customer's payment and transfers it through to the merchant.
