Refund review
Why a refunded parent status does not remove a refund
Order status filters apply to current orders, while refunds are queried as their own dated events.
Inspect the source record
Inspect the parent order's current status and the refund's creation date. Note whether the original order now falls outside selected statuses.
Build a focused report
Use TaxPack's status checkboxes for order events and select a period that includes the refund's own date.
Read the result
A refund can appear even when the parent order is not selected as an order event; that is part of the report's documented refund rule.
A concrete example
An order currently Refunded may be excluded from selected order statuses while its refund event still appears in October.
Avoid this mistaken conclusion
Do not interpret this as a duplicate order. Compare event_kind and event_id before adjusting any totals.
