■ Note Before you continue with the following script it is important that your Magento database is fully
backed up.
Currently, there is no direct method for deleting orders from within the Magento administration
interface. To delete any test orders, you will need to go to your MySQL client and run the query that is
copied below.
While there are a few Magento extensions that claim to add additional functionality to your store
and allow you to delete orders, in my experience I have found these extensions are unable to do what
they claim or can cause serious damage to your Magento database.
If this procedure is too advanced I would recommend, simply changing the status of any test orders
from pending to canceled. Alternatively, you can do a fresh install of Magento without sample data and
you will not have to remove products customers or orders.
■ Note Do not run this query if you do not want to delete all orders that are in your store.
