Exercise 3

To test this functionality, first create a customer account on the demo store and place an order. After completing this task, follow the steps below:

The order just placed will be under Orders. Click Manage Orders. As the order has just now been placed, the order status will likely read In Progress.

  2. Click Update and Ok to save changes.
  3. Go back to the Manage orders page, notice that the status has now changed to ‘Complete’.
  4. Go back to the Audit Logs page and check for a log that says ‘Change order state’.

On the Manage Orders page, there is an option to archive orders and view them on the Order History page. The audit log functionality now supports logging of the archive process as well as deletion of orders from Order History.

  4. To verify that the action has been logged, go back to the Audit Log page and view the logs. There should be an entry that says ‘Email Status To Shopper.’
Auditing Changes to Customer Records #

The audit logs feature now tracks any changes made on a customer record. This is crucial as the system keeps track of all changes that have been made and any unwanted changes can be reverted back.

Exercise 6

  1. Click People.
  2. Click Customers.
  3. Choose a customer and click on Edit icon.
  4. Change the email address for this account on the Edit Customer page.
