To learn how to edit orders in detail and understand the design setup requirements, please refer to How to create an order on BurgerPrints
Case 1: Complete information order – Unpaid status
Orders created from products listed directly on BurgerPrints may fall into this case when all required information is already completed.
What you need to do:
Review the order details.
Mark the order as Paid to proceed with production.
Case 2: Missing information – Incomplete status
Orders created from BurgerPrints products may appear as Incomplete if required details are missing, such as no base product selected for a specific Location.

Select the correct Product and Location.
Complete the missing information.
Proceed with payment to move the order to Unpaid status.
Case 3: Orders synced from Etsy
Orders synced from Etsy only include basic information such as Product name, Title, and Shipping details. These orders do not contain enough data to proceed directly to fulfillment.
What you need to do:
Go to Orders, choose Edit (Pencil icon)
Edit the order and complete all required information.
Once the order meets the system requirements, it will move to Unpaid status and be ready for payment.
Next step: Pay to start fulfillment
Once an order is Unpaid status, you can complete the payment to start production and shipping.

After an order is produced and shipped, BurgerPrints will automatically send the tracking number to Etsy.
Etsy will then update the order status so your customers can follow their delivery progress.

Set up payment methods to avoid fulfillment delays
Complete payment for Unpaid orders to start production
