Can admin modify order

In eCart 5 is it possible for the admin to modify an order? My client receives orders via his cart and then updates the price after adding the cost of additional embroidery work.

eCart is a Dreamweaver extension that builds out shopping cart and checkout pages, not administrative pages. You may want to take a look at our PowerStore solution, which is a pre-built set of pages, including an entire store and admin console to manage the front end, including orders.

Or feel free to ask more questions about what you are looking for and we will answer them.

I reviewed the online admin demo but couldn't find a place where the admin (store owner) could add new items or make charges to an existing order. Did I overlook this feature?

The store I'm designing should have a wish list or similar feature to enable this:
- customer enters store and chooses sports clothing and attaches a logo or text to embroider on clothing. This is entered into the store data base and an email goes to store owner and customer. No credit card information is collected at this time.
- after customer approval, of the additional embroidery charge (highly variable so not possible to standardize product options) the store owner adds the cost of embroidery to the order. The store sends a quote to the customer showing the total of the clothing plus embroidery work. To complete the purchase the customer opens the shopping cart, finds the order and eCart collects and processes the credit card information.

Can eCart do this or something similar?

Thanks

the products you will need to accomplish are:
eCart
Security Assist
DataAssist
Universal Email
Digital File Pro (for attaching the logo)

When the user first submits the order, use the eCart Store Order Summary and Store Order Details behaviors to store information about the order in the database.

The admin can then log into the admin section to update the order information, the admin section will be created using DataAssist. use SecurityAssist to add login functionality.

Use Universal Email to send an email to the customer containing a link to the order history page. You can then add eCart checkout to the order details page so the customer can accept the order and have it processed through the gateway.


There are a number of tutorials on the eCart, DataAssist and Security Assist support pages to help with putting these pieces together.
I would estimate the skill level for putting this together at around 7 on a scale of 1 - 10.
