Orders/When customers get emailed

When customers get emailed

Every action either emails the customer or stays silent. Here's exactly which is which.

ActionEmails the customer?

Mark as paidNever

The one you control

Update status is the only action with a switch. Keep “Notify customer” on to keep buyers in the loop; turn it off for silent corrections.
