# Status Management & Order Status

Shopware manages order states through a **state machine** (status management) with defined **status transitions**. The connector uses these to automatically report the order status back to Shopware when specific events occur in BC.

**Setup**

1. Import the status management and transitions using [Load Initial Data](/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/load-shopware-initial-data.md).
2. Define the following in the configuration:
   * **Order Status on Shipment** – which transition is triggered when a shipment is posted.
   * **Order Status on Invoice Creation** – which transition is triggered when an invoice is posted.
   * **Send Order Status Email** – whether Shopware sends an email to the customer when the status changes.

{% hint style="info" %}
The statuses are selected through a lookup on the loaded status transitions. If no values are available here, run **Load Initial Data** first.
{% endhint %}

**Feedback process**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.solutioo.de/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/status-management-and-order-status.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
