When searching for orders, you can use filters to save time and reduce effort. Order management is strongly connected with other components of the Commerce offering, such as Cart and Checkout, so users can speed up the process by uploading an order list or repeating previous transactions.
Payment management¶
The Payment component allows users to search for payment methods and payments, create new and manage existing payments and payment methods, and filter search results. Users can also enable or disable payment methods, change payment details, and cancel payments, depending on their role.
Shipping management¶

Storefront¶
The Storefront package includes a starter kit for developers. It's a foundational set of components that developers can customize and extend to create their own web store implementations. It contains default UI components and widgets that can be modified to create a customized web store.
Relevant faceted search¶
Search becomes crucial when your product catalog is extensive. Products can be sorted according to a variety of criteria using faceted search. The value it brings makes it a vital component in merchandizing. You can set up your search engine using Ibexa Commerce to help clients find what they're looking for more easily, which could result in more purchases.

These emails include notifications about changes in the status of various actions taken in relation to your commerce presence. With this feature you can also create email campaigns to engage users and increase sales.
