Delete an order

This tool permanently removes order records from WooCommerce, which cannot be undone. Order deletion destroys financial and transactional records that may be required for accounting, legal compliance, and customer service. The blast radius is critical: loss of order history affects business auditing, tax records, fraud investigation, and customer disputes.
