The 'Pending/To Handle' status is primarily used when there are pending orders that require the merchant's attention before they are updated to another status.
There are three conditions under the 'Pending/To Handle' status:
a) Cash on delivery
When customers choose this option, merchants need to ensure that the money is collected before updating the status.
b) Self-pickup
Merchants need to prepare the goods before the customer picks them up
c) Quote Shipping
Merchants need to reply to the customer with the shipping fee before the customer can proceed to make payment.
