# How do I Change the Test Packages for Samples in an Existing Order?

## This article describes how to update a test package for a sample after the order has been placed

1. **Find the Order** you want to edit ([How do I find an Order?)](https://support.confidentcannabis.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003731914?hsLang=en)
2. Make sure the Order is in the **Placed** or **In Progress** stage. If the Order is in Completed stage, you cannot add or remove Samples from an Order. If you need to make this change, you must return Order to the In Progress stage
3. Click the **Edit Order** box
