Cancel non invoiced order item without cancelling order

Question

We have allowed an offline payment method on our store, where the customer pays for the item once its been shipped and reaches them.

The test case scenario that I am facing issues with is as follows:

1. Customer orders for 3 items with 1 quantity each.

2. When we process this order for shipping, we find that the 1st item can be shipped right away, the 2nd item has to be cancelled as per the customer's request and the 3rd item might take a week to procure.

3. With Magento, I've noticed that if we're sure that the last two items are not going to be shipped, we can invoice and ship only the 1st item and when we click on the 'Cancel Order' button, it cancels the non invoiced items. But in this case, the 2nd item should be cancelled right now while the 3rd item will be shipped only after a week.

Is there a way to cancel the 2nd item without cancelling the order?

Answer 1

All you need to do is, invoice and ship only the item that the customer needs. Once that is done, you need to cancel the order. It will turn the order status to complete and mentioning the other items are cancelled. Please check the attached

Answer 2

One thing can be done! You can EDIT the order after the first order_item is invoiced & shipped. in ACTION drop-down, select remove for the desired item and then Submit the order.

It will create another order with that left-out item which will be shipped later. And the original order will be stated as complete, which will definitely help you to track the orders properly, rather than cancelling them.

Go this. Check this script I use to 'Rollback' the invoice. Had to write it as I had some issue with 'Auto Invoicing' at first. I put echo in to make sure it always parses properly. Put this in the root and call the file. http://example.com/file.php Take not under echo 4 as that is the status. This will not 'cancel', but you can add what you ened on status here.

<?php
ini_set('display_errors',1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);
include 'app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
Mage::register('isSecureArea', 1);

$incrementId = 300000343;

echo '1';

$order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')->loadByIncrementId($incrementId);
$invoice = $order->getInvoiceCollection();
$items = $order->getItemsCollection();

echo '2';


foreach ($invoices as $invoice){
$invoice->delete();
}

echo '3';



$order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_CANCEL, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_HOLD, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_UNHOLD, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_EDIT, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_CREDITMEMO, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_INVOICE, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_REORDER, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_SHIP, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_COMMENT, false);
    $order->setActionFlag(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::ACTION_FLAG_PRODUCTS_PERMISSION_DENIED, false);

echo '4';

$order->setState(Mage_Sales_Model_Order::STATE_NEW, true);
$order->save();

echo '5';

foreach ($items as $item) {
    $item->setData('qty_invoiced',0)->save();
}


echo '6';


echo '7';
