Description / Archive & Delete order for Magento 2

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Customer Reviews

Price
Mass archive of 10,000 orders completed without issues
Review by
We had a massive backlog — over 10,000 old orders to archive. I used the CLI command with a reasonable batch size and it completed without memory errors or timeouts. The batch processing configuration is well tuned.
Price
Support team was responsive
Review by
Had a minor configuration question about setting up auto-delete with specific statuses. Reached out to support and got a detailed, helpful reply within a few hours. Great post-purchase support experience.
Price
Activity log gives full audit trail
Review by
For compliance and internal accountability, having a log of every delete/archive operation with admin username, IP address, and timestamp is invaluable. Our auditors were impressed when we showed them the log.

Works perfectly on Magento 2.4.7
Review by
Installed on our 2.4.7 store with PHP 8.2 and had zero compatibility issues. Setup upgrade ran clean, DI compile had no errors. The module status check confirmed everything was running properly. No conflicts with our other extensions.
Price
Backup before delete is a lifesaver
Review by
Knowing there's an automatic JSON backup in var/deleteorder/backup before any deletion makes me sleep easier. I had to restore data once when a junior admin deleted the wrong batch — the backup was there and complete. Brilliant feature.
Price
Clean UI, intuitive controls
Review by
The UI additions to the admin panel feel native to Magento — not bolted on. The Trash and Archive grid sections are logically placed under Sales. First-time users will figure it out without documentation.
Price
GraphQL support is a nice touch
Review by
We use a headless Magento setup and manage everything via GraphQL. Most extensions skip GraphQL entirely but ArrowTwist includes full mutations and queries. Integration with our dashboard app was smooth. Really appreciated the extra effort.
Price
Order protection feature saved us once
Review by
A new admin accidentally tried to delete a recent high-value order. The protection rules (we set 7-day protection and protect above $500) blocked it immediately and showed a clear reason. That single moment justified buying the extension.
Price
Auto-archive keeps our grid fast
Review by
Before archiving 3 years of old orders, our Sales grid was taking 10+ seconds to load. After configuring auto-archive for completed orders older than 90 days, the grid is snappy again. The extension paid for itself in admin productivity alone.
Price
CLI commands are incredibly useful
Review by
We run batch cleanup jobs via cron on our server. The CLI commands like deleteorder:delete and deleteorder:archive are perfectly designed for scripting. The --dry-run flag is smart — lets you preview before committing. 5 stars.

Faqs
Can I restore a permanently deleted order?

Permanently deleted orders cannot be restored from the UI. However, enabling the Auto Backup feature creates a full JSON snapshot of every order before deletion — which can be used for manual data recovery. For safer deletion workflows, use the Soft Delete (Trash) feature, which retains orders in a recoverable trash bin for a configurable number of days.

Does deleting an order affect inventory or customer records?

No. The extension removes order transaction data only (order, invoices, shipments, credit memos, payments, tax, etc.). It does not modify product inventory levels, catalog data, or customer account records. Stock restoration, if needed, must be done separately through Magento's native features.

Is there a limit to how many orders I can delete at once?

By default, the maximum orders per bulk operation is 100 (configurable). For very large datasets — thousands of orders — use the CLI commands or the Delete by Filters feature with batch processing enabled, which processes orders in batches without hitting UI timeouts.

Does it work with Adobe Commerce (EE) and Magento Cloud?

Yes. The extension is fully compatible with Magento Open Source (CE), Adobe Commerce (EE), and Magento Cloud. Select the appropriate edition during purchase. The extension follows all Magento cloud deployment best practices and works with ECE tools.

How do I prevent specific orders from ever being deleted?

Use any combination of the five protection mechanisms: protect by order status (e.g. "processing"), by age (e.g. orders within last 7 days), by order total (e.g. orders above $500), by whitelist (specific order IDs), or via the manual protect button on the order view page. Protected orders are blocked in all contexts — UI, API, CLI, and cron.

Can I use the extension with a headless/PWA Magento storefront?

Absolutely. The extension ships with a full GraphQL schema (queries and mutations) alongside the REST API, making it compatible with headless Magento architectures, PWA Studio frontends, and any GraphQL-capable admin tools or ERP integrations.

Why is this better than manually deleting database records?

Manual database deletion is risky: it's easy to miss related tables, break Magento's referential integrity, skip firing observer events, or leave orphaned records. This extension handles all 11+ related database tables, fires proper Magento events (so third-party extensions can respond), enforces protection rules, creates audit logs, and provides UI/API/CLI access — all safely without any risk of data inconsistency.
