Account Selector Details

After adding the account selector fragment to a page, you can click the account icon to open it. Here you can access the accounts you have permission to manage. You can also create a new order from the account selector by clicking the Create New Order button. For this to work correctly, you must have an Open Carts page.

When you have an active order, the account selector fragment displays the order number and its status right below the account name. If there’s an active workflow, the order is created with the Draft status.

Open the account selector to create a new order or switch between accounts.
