The functionality is generally enabled for B2B customers but can be made available to any user group. 

By selecting DashboardOrder History, the user is taken to the Order History page. They can search for a specific order by entering the invoice number or find orders that fit the search criteria. 

Under the Search tool, the Order History page will list all orders and related data such as current order status, order date, and order total. (Display options can be edited in the Track Order Widget.)
