đźš« Cancelling a Courier
You can cancel a courier before a driver is assigned via the Controls Dashboard or Slerp App.
When to cancel a courier
You may need to cancel when:
- A customer cancels the order.
- You cannot fulfil the order in time (e.g. stock or production issues).
- You need to change the fulfilment date/time significantly.
- You booked the wrong vehicle or delivery option.
Always check your courier partner’s cancellation policy — fees may apply, especially close to pickup time.
Step‑by‑step: Cancel a courier in Slerp Controls
- Log into your Controls Dashboard.
- Go to Orders tab in the left‑hand menu.
- Open the order you want to change.
- Click the Delivery tab at the top of the order view.
- In the Delivery info section, scroll down to the courier job details.
- Click Cancel delivery (or the equivalent cancel button shown for that courier).
- Confirm the cancellation when prompted.

⚠️ Important notes
- Timing matters: The closer it is to pickup, the more likely that cancellation fees apply or that cancellation may be blocked by the courier.
- Customer communication:
If an order is delayed or rescheduled, make sure your team informs the customer of the new delivery time or any refund being processed. - Multiple attempts:
Avoid repeatedly cancelling and re‑booking — this can confuse customers and may increase costs.
