Handle an unavailable item or changed order

Resolve the customer agreement and operational consequences together.

Updated

Check what has already happened

Review the order, payment and preparation state before changing anything. Determine whether stock has been reserved, preparation has begun or a handoff has occurred. Do not treat an unavailable product as permission to substitute something else.

Agree the next step

Contact the customer through the appropriate business channel. Explain the affected item and available options without promising an automatic refund or replacement. Confirm any changed quantity, price, delivery time or dietary implications before acting.

Use supported changes

Apply the supported order update or cancellation route and review its result. Handle any payment adjustment through the configured payment system. If an edit is not supported for the current state, ask for help instead of rewriting unrelated records.

Reconcile afterwards

Check that order details, payment outcome and stock consequences agree with the resolution. Keep the original reference and a record of the agreed change. Update future product availability so other customers do not encounter the same problem.
