Previously when a Shop would want to delete a Status they would have to search and manually update each Quote/Invoice to the New Status before they could delete it which was not an efficient use of time and difficult to do.
In order to delete a Status it must not be:
Part of an Automation
The default status of a Merch store order invoice
A status that syncs with Quickbooks
Sending a Status Change Notification
An alert will render with any reasons why a Status can not be deleted with links to go and update the current Status being used.
Example:
After going to My Account
> Customize Invoice Statuses
and clicking the X
to delete the Ready for Production
status an alert modal renders informing that there are 4 reasons why the status can not be deleted.
Once the Ready for Production
status is valid to have it's Quotes/Invoices re-assigned the alert will let the shop know how many Quotes/Invoices will be re-assigned to the Status that the Shop selects.
Clicking Submit
will re-assign the Quotes/Invoices to the selected Status and delete the current Status.
