  • About editing delivery addresses

    After a customer places an order, there may be times when the customer requests changes to the delivery address before the order has been dispatched. You can update these order details without having to cancel the order and create a new one.

    Before you start

    Select each drop-down below for things you need to know when updating a delivery label.

    If you have already created a delivery label

    You can void the delivery label and proceed with editing the delivery address on the order as long as all of the items have not been marked as dispatched in your Point of Sale app.

    If the order has multiple fulfilments

    You can update the recipient address for the unsent items. The new address will apply to all items that have not been sent. You cannot update the address for a single unsent item.

    Updating your customer’s info

    Updating the delivery address for an order will not automatically update the same customer’s profile in your Customer Directory.

    Accounting for taxes and delivery fees

    Updating the address during order management flow does not cause any changes to the payment amount or fees the customer is charged for the order.

    If all items in an order have already been changed to sent

    Then the address cannot be changed. If all items in the order are already in sent status, you can create a delivery label outside of Square with a different address for your customer. In this case, be sure to communicate the address change with your customer as they will not see the updated address in their dispatch notification email.

    Edit the delivery address

    You can edit the address on an order in the Square Dashboard, the Square Point of Sale app with retail mode enabled, or from the Square Retail Point of Sale app.

    Square Dashboard

    2. Tap the order with the delivery address you want to edit.
    3. Select Edit Address > Verify.

    Square will run this address through our database, recommending changes where needed. If prompted with a delivery address confirmation screen, choose the address that best matches the customer’s provided information and tap Done.
