How Do I Manually Add Orders in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 5:38 pm

Adding orders in WooCommerce is a simple process. You can either add them manually through the “Add Order” page, or you can import them from a CSV file.

If you’re adding orders manually, you’ll need to enter the customer’s information, the products they ordered, and the order total. You can also add notes to an order, and choose whether or not to send the customer an email notification about their purchase.

To add an order manually:

1. Go to WooCommerce > Orders. 2. Select Add Order from the top right of the screen. 3. Enter the customer’s information in the Customer Details section. You can search for an existing customer by their email address, or add a new customer if needed. 4. Choose the products that were ordered in the Order Items section. You can search for products by name, or scroll through the list of products and select them one by one.

5. Enter the order total in the Order Total section. This should include any shipping costs and taxes that were charged. 6. If you need to add any notes about the order, you can do so in the Order Notes section. 7. Select whether or not to send the customer an email notification about their purchase in the Email Notification section. 8. When you’re finished, click Save Order to complete the process.

PRO TIP: If you are considering adding orders manually in WooCommerce, please be aware that this is a risky process and should only be done by experienced developers. There are many things that can go wrong when adding orders manually, including incorrectly setting order statuses, which can lead to lost orders and angry customers.

That’s all there is to it! Adding orders in WooCommerce is quick and easy, whether you’re doing it manually or importing them from a CSV file.
