If authorization is failed, a cancelation message is sent to the customer. On the other hand, each line item is checked with the stock. If it is in stock, assigned to the order otherwise the item is removed from the list. If stocks are available for all products and payment is authorized, the sales team dispatched the order.Shipping teams ship the order to the customer. The method of delivery is decided conditionally.
