Why Shipping Fields Get Stuck
After checkout, Magento shipping data is often hard to correct when a carrier changes or a PO number appears:
- Wrong method locked in — customer asked for overnight after the fact
- Tracking corrections — need to edit without cancel/reorder
- Custom references — third-party accounts / PO fields
- No audit trail — unclear who changed shipping data

- Adjust carrier/method/tracking style data from admin

General Composer install steps for Towering Media modules: Installation guide.
Installation Overview
Step 1: Authenticate Composer
Add your Towering Media credentials to auth.json in the Magento root (same pattern as other Towering Media extensions).
Step 2: Require the package
composer require toweringmedia/module-custom-ship
Step 3: Enable and upgrade
php bin/magento module:enable Toweringmedia_CustomShip
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
php bin/magento cache:flush
Exact module enable name may match your package’s registration.php / module.xml—confirm in the package after install. Production stores should follow your normal deploy process.

Edit Shipping from Admin
- Install/enable Toweringmedia_CustomShip.
- Open an order → shipping section / Custom Ship UI.
- Update method, tracking, or custom fields as needed.
- Save; optionally notify the customer per configuration.
- Confirm the storefront order view / emails reflect changes.
Validate Notifications & Audit
Check both data and messaging:
- Shipping fields persist after save
- Audit/history shows the admin user
- Customer email (if enabled) looks correct
- Invoices/packing slips still print cleanly
Troubleshooting
Cannot edit shipped orders
- Check module rules for order state (processing vs complete)
- See wiki for allowed statuses
