First, you can make sure that<\/span> all of your order processing, inventory, shipping, and taxes selections <\/b>are<\/span> correct and working together seamlessly.<\/b><\/p>\n

Secondly, you can verify that<\/span> your checkout process itself is running smoothly <\/b>and that there are<\/span> no challenges or obstacles <\/b>for your customers when they attempt to check out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
