Overview
This process explains what to do when a customer requests to amend or make a change to their order, i.e. change the delivery date, correct the recipient's details, amend their card message, etc. Follow the relevant steps for orders executed by a florist, courier, Teleflora or overseas unit.
Always identify the order type before taking any action.
1. Initial Checks When You Open the Ticket (for all order types)
- Verify Data Protection - Locate the order via Customer View, confirm you can discuss order details with the customer.

Awaiting Acceptance – The order may be modified without contacting the executing member, however, not if Teleflora or Overseas.
Accepted - No changes can be made without discussing with the executing member first.
Rejected - The order has been declined by the executing member so is back with us to make the relevant changes.
Delivered/ Delivered Carded - It is too late to make any changes to the order.
Delivery Attempted - No changes can be made without discussing with the executing member first.
