Error message

No item found for order ${input.order_id} in order change ${orderChange.id}

What it means

validateDraftOrderRemoveActionItemStep searches the order change's actions for input.action_id; if no action with that id exists on the change, it throws. It means the draft-order change action you are trying to remove is not part of the current pending change.

Solutions

1. Re-fetch the draft order change (order change actions) and use a live action_id
2. Confirm the order change is still in pending status
3. Refresh the admin UI state after confirm/delete operations

Example fix

// before
await removeItemDraftOrderWorkflow(container).run({ input: { order_id, action_id: staleId } })

// after
const changes = await query.graph({ entity: "order_change", filters: { order_id, status: "pending" }, fields: ["actions.*"] })
const action = changes.data[0]?.actions.find((a) => a.id === wantedId)
if (action) {
  await removeItemDraftOrderWorkflow(container).run({ input: { order_id, action_id: action.id } })
}

const changes = await query.graph({ entity: "order_change", filters: { order_id, status: "pending" }, fields: ["actions.id"] })
const exists = changes.data[0]?.actions.some((a) => a.id === action_id)

try { await workflow(scope).run({ input }) } catch (e) { if (/No item found for order .* in order change/.test(e.message)) { /* refresh change actions in UI */ } throw e }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling the draft-order remove-item (delete action) workflow with an action_id that is not among orderChange.actions (action already applied, change confirmed, or wrong order change).

Common situations: Draft order was already completed/confirmed so the pending change no longer holds that action; client holds a stale action id; action was removed by another admin session concurrently.
