Sync WooCommerce Order Status with MEC Booking Status:

Enabling this option disables the verification system from the reservation process and practically speaking, nothing else is done on the verification (except ‘canceling’ process that if a user does it it will be affected).

All the registered orders in WooCommerce that include at least one event from the Modern Events Calendar (purchased using the WooCommerce Integration add-on) has 3 different status:

1. Verification: Verified
2. Confirmation: Pending
3. Completed: when an admin in the website goes to Booking menu and confirms the registered orders the status changes to Completed

Important hint: As soon as the status for the reserved order is done, you should update the order in WooCommerce as well. Therefore, please do consider that if there is any other products registered by a client, you need to go on and update the order first (process it in WooCommerce)

Please note: If you do not want to confirm a payment or booking, you need to cancel this booking in MEC as the admin as well so the order is canceled. For more information please refer to the ‘event status and WooCommerce orders’ at the end of this article.
