Date and channel are quite self explanatory. In this article we will more focus on order, payment and fulfillment status to help you understand what they mean and what actions will bring the orders into these status.

Orders which are not cancelled, archived or deleted will have Open status. This is the only order type which contributes to the red order count beside the Orders tab.
