Overview

This FAQ reviews what you need to know about quarantined orders in Traderunner.


What is a quarantined order?

Quarantined orders are orders that at the time of importing into Trade Runner, have not had payment confirmed. This may happen for orders that are Fixed Price Offers. 


What to do if you receive a quarantined order. 

If you receive a quarantined order, you will be notified via email and an alert in the orders section of the Trade Runner Dashboard.


The order is held in a 'quarantined' state in Trade Runner and is not sent through to your ecommerce store until you release it. This is to protect Sellers from sending out their products without receiving payment.


Here's what to do-

  1. You will need to monitor your Pay Now/Ping account for payment.
  2. Once you have received payment for the order login to Trade Runner to release the order from Quarantine, so that it is sent to your ecommerce store for fulfilment.
  3. Go to "Order --> All Orders"
  4. Find the order - you can filter by Order Type: Quarantined
  5. Click through to the page which contains all information about the order and click the button "Release from Quarantine"
  6. If the order was paid via bank transfer, you will have to manually process it as we cannot confirm the payment, therefore we cannot push the order to your ecommerce site.


Key Points:

  • Quarantine orders are orders where a confirmed payment hasn't been received when we import the order from Trade Me
  • Quarantine orders are held in Trade Runner until you release them
  • Once you have received payment, you can release Quarantined orders to your ecommerce store for fulfilment
  • Depending on your ecommerce platform, the order may be marked as having no money paid by the customer because the transaction was missing from Trade Me, this can happen if payment was via Bank Transfer   You will need to add the payment manually in your ecommerce store if you require this information to be shown, since it has occurred outside the normal lifecycle for an order
