- **Severity:** medium
- **Change:** enum-added

## What changed

As of Admin API version 2026-10, Order.displayFulfillmentStatus can return FULFILLMENT_NOT_REQUIRED for orders with nothing left to fulfill (cancelled or refunded before fulfillment), which returned UNFULFILLED before.

## What to do

Handle FULFILLMENT_NOT_REQUIRED wherever the code maps or filters displayFulfillmentStatus, and stop treating these orders as UNFULFILLED.
