The fix starts in the thread

Aide handles the edits a shopper can ask for. The ones that need judgment go to your team with the order already open.

Aide finds the item on the order, says exactly what it will remove and waits for a yes.
Customer
I ordered two Amber candles by mistake on #2214. Can you take one off?
Aide
Order #2214 hasn't shipped, so I can. Should I remove one Amber candle and refund it to your original payment method?
✓Unshipped item found · Waiting for the shopper to confirm

Aide gathers the photo and hands over. A teammate sends the replacement from the order card in two clicks.
Customer
The lid on my teapot from #3307 arrived cracked. Photo attached.
Aide
I'm sorry it arrived like that. I've passed order #3307 and your photo to our team, and they'll reply here.
✓Handed off · Teammate sent a free replacement, order #3412

When a shopper needs time, a teammate holds fulfillment so the store doesn't ship while it's sorted out.
Customer
Please don't ship #5120 yet. I might need a different size.
Aide
I've passed order #5120 to our team before it ships. They'll reply here about the size.
✓Teammate held fulfillment · On hold: other
Your rules

Simple edits by Aide. The rest by your team.

A switch per action

Removing items and adding notes each have their own switch in Aide's order settings.

Approval above your limit

A replacement worth more than your threshold waits for an Owner or Admin to approve it.

Every edit on record

The order's history shows each action, who asked, who approved it and the result.

Frequently asked questions

In Shopify, create a draft order with the items, add a 100% discount and free shipping, then mark it as paid. In Aide, a teammate ticks the items on the original order and Aide creates that $0 order, shipped to the original address and tagged aide-reship.

With Aide, yes, while the item hasn't shipped. A verified shopper asks in chat or email, Aide confirms which item and how many, and removes it. The refund for the item waits for your team until you raise Aide's refund limits.

By default the customer gets your store's order confirmation for the new order. Untick "Email the customer from the store" to send it quietly. The new order is still linked to the customer.

A teammate holds fulfillment from the order card with one of Shopify's reasons, such as incorrect address, and an optional staff note. The customer isn't told, and Release hold lifts it from the same card.

Your teammates, from the conversation in Aide or inside Zendesk and Front. Replacements stay a team decision, and ones worth more than your approval threshold wait for an Owner or Admin.

Cancelled orders, orders without a shipping address and items whose product was deleted from the store. You can resend up to the quantity on the original order.
