When a customer pays, partially or fully, by coupon code the order status is set to "Pending Payment". We use a third party order management application which only pulls in orders with the status "Processing".
Normal orders are automatically set to "Processing", so it's only when a coupon code is used that we have a problem.
Is there a way of automatically updating the order status to "Processing" when a customers applies a coupon code?
Thanks for your help
