Google Checkout processing status after order is charged

I'm newbie to ZenCart and Google Checkout. I've created a sandbox account for merchant and buyer. A test item has been shipped and charged.

Last entry in Zencart orders page says Google Processing Latest charge amount: $23.90 Total charge amount: $23.90

When or how does the "processing" status change? Does it change when the credit card bill is actually paid?

I'm sure it must be quite obvious, but this is all new to me and I have nothing to compare with.

Thank you for any help.

Google Processing is as good as it gets to tell you it's OK to ship...

If everything is working right - the status changes when you use your order screen in your z-c admin and manually change the status to GoogleShipped. (You can also enter tracking and shipping info that goes back to Google.) You should see a pink message at the top of your admin screen that states that Google has been notified and the status has changed.

This usually sends a message back to Google, where the order status is changed and the order is automatically archived.

Thanks. I think I understand now.
