Delete orders via mass actions
1. Navigate to Sales > Orders and select an order you want to delete.
2. Unfold the Actions dropdown menu and press the Delete button.
3. Confirm you want to delete the selected order.
Once you confirm you want to delete the order, it will disappear from the grid.
Can you delete all orders in Magento 2?
Easily! Simply take the same steps mentioned above and select all orders you want to delete.
Delete orders from the order details page
Each order details page is also equipped with the Delete button. So you can remove orders from there too.
- Go to Sales > Orders and select the order you want to delete.
- Press the Delete Order button.
Although the extension allows you to delete orders with any status, you don't always have to delete them. If some order details are off or the order status has "stuck" you can always change order status and edit order without cancelling it.
