Draft Order emails
Two emails drive the Draft Orders flow. Toggle each under Orders → Draft Orders → Settings → Notifications, and edit the wording under Settings → Email Templates.
The two emails
Order request submitted
Shop admin
A buyer submits a new order request
Order request confirmed
Customer
You confirm (or auto-create sends it) — includes the payment link
Where they go
The admin email goes to your store's admin email (Shopify → Settings → Store details).
The customer email goes to the address on the order request, with the payment link and terms.
Editing the wording
Open Settings → Email Templates, pick the Draft Orders template, and edit the subject and body. Shortcodes like {{request_number}}, {{customer_name}}, {{subtotal}}, {{payment_terms}}, and {{pay_link}} are filled in automatically. Defaults ship in English and Vietnamese; other locales fall back to English.
If emails aren't arriving
Check the shop's email / SMTP setup (Settings → Email → SMTP) and send a test email.
Check the recipient's spam folder — mark the first email "Not spam".
Confirm the notification toggle is on in Draft Orders → Settings.
See Emails not sending for the full checklist.
