Record order activities

A wide range of events related to order/shipment status update, payment, and promotion of an order will be automatically recorded, and users can view them in the Order Notes section in the Order Management view.

OrderActivity logs order activities from the Order Management (CSR). Recording of order activities is based on the OrderNote feature. The OrderActivityEvent enum defines events that will be recorded when processing an Order, and the IOrderActivity interface extends from IOrderNote.

When processing an Order, activities are recorded automatically to the OrderNote collection, and the OrderNote collection of OrderGroup will contain both OrderNote and OrderActivity. You can add custom OrderNote in Order Management. These are of Custom note type, whereas the OrderActivity is a System note type which cannot be updated or deleted.
