How can Customers cancel their order?
There are a lot of reasons that a customer would want to cancel an order. It may be the wrong input of delivery address and schedule, wrong mode of payment, or just because a customer had a change of mind. While it's a customer right to cancel an order, each cancellation has an implication on the business.
A customer can only cancel an order via the mobile app or website when the order is still on Pending stage.

What happens if the Order is being processed by Store already?
The customer will not be able to cancel an order that has been changed to Processing by the branch.
The only way for a cancellation to push through is by mutual agreement of both Customer and Store Branch.
