<div></div>
<div>
<p>1. Access the Tool<br />
– Navigate to WooCommerce > Status Updater in your WordPress admin dashboard, or use the “Updater Page” link from the Plugins page (available to shop managers and admins).<br />
<img class="alignnone wp-image-18734005184626 size-full" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/01.png" alt="" width="661" height="622" /></p>
<p>2. Choose Selection Method<br />
– Date Range: Select “Date Range” to update orders within a specific time period.<br />
– Enter “Start Date” and “Cutoff Date.”<br />
– Pick <strong>one or more</strong> “Current Statuses to Update” (e.g., “Pending,” “Processing”).<br />
– Order IDs: Select “Order IDs” to update specific orders by their IDs.<br />
– Enter comma-separated order IDs (e.g., “24, 25, 26”). No current status selection is required.<br />
<img class="alignnone wp-image-18734005184627 size-large" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/02.png?w=980" alt="" width="980" height="762" /></p>

<p>3. Set New Status<br />
– Choose a “New Status” from the dropdown (e.g., “Completed,” “Cancelled”).</p>
<p>4. Configure Options<br />
– Set “Batch Size” (default 10) to control how many orders process at once.<br />
– Check “Disable Admin Emails” to suppress admin notifications during updates (customer emails are always suppressed).</p>
<p>5. Preview and Process<br />
– Click “Preview Orders” to see the total orders that will be updated.<br />
– If the new status matches a selected current status for a date range, you’ll see “Cannot process”—adjust statuses and try again.<br />
– Click “Start Processing” to begin. Watch the progress bar update in real-time.<br />

<div class="woo-sc-box normal  success ">Your most important orders deserve to be treated that way. Order Priority for WooCommerce makes sure they always are — backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.</div>
<h2>Every minute a critical order sits unnoticed is a minute your customer is waiting</h2>
<p>A high-value B2B order comes in alongside fifty routine ones. An urgent same-day delivery lands in the queue with no flag. A VIP customer’s order gets processed in the same sequence as everyone else. Your team works hard — but without a prioritization system, they are working blind.</p>
<p>The result is avoidable delays, missed SLAs, frustrated customers, and the operational chaos that comes from treating a $5 order the same as a $500 one.</p>
<h2>Automatic order prioritization — set the rules once, let it run</h2>
<p>Order Priority for WooCommerce adds an intelligent prioritization layer to your WooCommerce Orders table. Define conditions — order total thresholds, specific product categories, shipping methods, payment gateways, order status, or any combination — and the plugin assigns the right priority level automatically the moment an order comes in. Your team opens the orders list and instantly knows where to start.</p>
<h2>Feature details</h2>
<h3>Automated prioritization based on customizable rules</h3>
<p>Define the conditions that make an order high priority for your business — a total above $200, an express shipping method, a product from a specific category — and the plugin handles assignment automatically. No manual review required. Every order that meets your criteria gets flagged the moment it arrives.</p>
<p>Rules can match <strong>ALL conditions (AND)</strong> or <strong>ANY condition (OR)</strong> — giving you precise control without needing to create multiple overlapping rules for common scenarios.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734004878110 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/screenshot-xyno-technologies_com-2025_02_08-08_58_44.png?w=896" alt="Order priority rule configuration panel" width="896" height="415" /></p>
<h3>Priority levels displayed in the orders table</h3>
<p>A dedicated priority column sits directly in your WooCommerce Orders table — showing your priority labels at a glance for every order. Your team no longer has to open individual orders to assess what needs immediate attention. The most important orders stand out the moment the page loads.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734004878114 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/screenshot-xyno-technologies_com-2025_02_08-08_59_48.png?w=896" alt="Priority levels displayed in the WooCommerce orders table" width="896" height="415" /></p>
<h3>Custom priority levels — go beyond the defaults</h3>
<p>The built-in Normal, High, Urgent, and Critical levels cover most workflows — but your business might speak a different language. Add unlimited custom priority levels directly from the Labels Settings page: name them <em>VIP</em>, <em>Express</em>, <em>Wholesale</em>, <em>Rush</em>, or anything else your team already uses. Each custom level gets its own label text, text color, and badge background, and appears everywhere priority is shown — the orders table, filters, bulk actions, and rule configuration.</p>
<h3>Fully customizable labels, colors, and backgrounds</h3>
<p>Rename any priority level to match your internal language. Set the text color and background for each level so priority indicators are immediately recognizable at a glance, styled to fit your workflow rather than a generic default.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734004878116 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/settingss.png?w=896" alt="Priority label and color customization settings" width="896" height="415" /></p>
<h3>Drag-and-drop rule ordering</h3>
<p>When multiple rules could apply to an order, the first matching rule wins. Drag your rules into the exact sequence you want — no numbering, no configuration screens, just grab and drop. The rule at the top of the list has the highest precedence. Change your mind later and drag again.</p>
<h3>Priority filter on the orders page</h3>
<p>Filter the entire orders list by priority level in one click. When a backlog builds up, your team can isolate every Urgent or Critical order and clear them first — without scrolling through hundreds of rows or searching manually. The filter is always there, always fast, and works with all priority levels including custom ones.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734004878118 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/screenshot-xyno-technologies_com-2025_02_08-09_02_31.png?w=896" alt="Priority filter on the WooCommerce orders page" width="896" height="415" /></p>
<h3>Bulk priority assignment for existing orders</h3>
<p>Rules run on new orders automatically — but what about the orders already in your system? Use the built-in bulk action on the WooCommerce Orders page to select any set of existing orders and assign a priority level in one step. Tag your entire backlog, clean up old orders, or retroactively apply a new rule’s logic without touching each order individually.</p>
<h3>Manual priority adjustment on the edit order page</h3>
<p>Automated rules handle the routine — but sometimes a situation calls for human judgment. A returning customer mentions urgency in their order notes, or a wholesale buyer calls ahead. Change any order’s priority instantly using the dropdown on the edit order page, with no rules configuration needed.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734004878129 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/screenshot-xyno-technologies_com-2025_02_08-09_04_01.png?w=896" alt="Manual priority adjustment dropdown on the edit order page" width="896" height="415" /></p>
<h3>Priority audit trail — know who changed what and when</h3>
<p>Every time an order’s priority is changed — by a rule, by a team member from the edit page, or via bulk action — a note is added to the order’s activity log. It records the previous priority, the new priority, the user who made the change, and the timestamp. No more uncertainty about why an order is marked Critical or who escalated it.</p>
<h3>Order status as a trigger condition</h3>
<p>Priority isn’t always set at the moment of purchase. An order that moves to <em>On Hold</em> may now need urgent attention. An order that transitions to <em>Processing</em> after a failed payment is worth flagging differently than one that went straight through. Use order status as a condition in your rules — and the plugin re-evaluates priority automatically whenever an order’s status changes.</p>
<h3>Full compatibility with WooCommerce and HPOS</h3>
<p>Works with both standard WooCommerce order storage and High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) — so whether your store is on a legacy setup or the latest infrastructure, Order Priority for WooCommerce slots in without disruption.</p>
<h3>Intuitive rule management interface</h3>
<p>Create, edit, and manage your prioritization rules from a clean admin panel designed to be self-explanatory. Set conditions, assign priority levels, save — no developer needed, no documentation required to get started.</p>
<h2>What your store gains</h2>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-secondary">
<li><strong>Faster fulfillment on high-value orders.</strong> Critical and urgent orders get processed first — automatically — without relying on your team to manually identify them.</li>
<li><strong>Fewer missed SLAs and delivery promises.</strong> When priority is visible at a glance, nothing urgent slips through unnoticed.</li>
<li><strong>Reduced manual work and decision fatigue.</strong> Rules run automatically on every incoming order — your team focuses on fulfillment, not triage.</li>
<li><strong>Better team coordination.</strong> Everyone on your operations team sees the same priority indicators — no ambiguity about what to process next.</li>
<li><strong>A workflow that speaks your language.</strong> Custom priority levels mean the system uses your terminology, not someone else’s defaults.</li>
<li><strong>A workflow that scales.</strong> As order volume grows, automated prioritization keeps your team effective without adding headcount or complexity.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Built for teams that cannot afford to miss an urgent order</h2>
<h3>High-volume stores</h3>
<p>When hundreds of orders arrive daily, manual prioritization is not realistic. Automated rules ensure every order is correctly flagged the moment it comes in — so your team always works the right queue in the right order.</p>
<h3>Wholesale and B2B stores</h3>
<p>Large orders from business buyers often carry SLA expectations or relationship stakes that routine retail orders do not. Automatically elevate these orders to High, Critical, or a custom <em>Wholesale</em> level so they receive the attention they deserve without requiring your team to recognize them manually.</p>
<h3>Stores with express or same-day shipping</h3>
<p>Shipping method-based rules mean that any order selecting express or same-day delivery is automatically flagged as urgent — giving your fulfillment team the signal they need to act immediately.</p>
<h3>Stores with complex fulfillment workflows</h3>
<p>Use order status as a trigger to re-flag orders when they move between stages. An order that stalls in <em>On Hold</em> can automatically escalate to Urgent after the status changes. Rules that combine multiple conditions — status, total, shipping method, user role — let you model exactly how your fulfillment team actually thinks.</p>
<h3>Customer support and operations teams</h3>
<p>With the priority filter, visual column, and bulk assignment, your team can open the orders list and instantly know where to start — no briefing, no spreadsheet, no daily stand-up just to determine what is on fire.</p>
<h2>Honest answers to common questions</h2>
<h3>Can I use multiple conditions in one rule?</h3>
<p>Yes. Rules can combine conditions — for example, orders over $300 that <em>also</em> use express shipping — giving you precise control over exactly which orders get flagged at each priority level. Choose AND logic to require all conditions, or OR logic to match any one of them.</p>
<h3>What happens if an order matches multiple rules?</h3>
<p>The first matching rule in your priority order wins. Drag your rules into the sequence that reflects your business logic — the rule at the top takes precedence. You have full control over which rule runs first.</p>
<h3>Can I add my own priority levels?</h3>
<p>Yes. Beyond the built-in Normal, High, Urgent, and Critical levels, you can create unlimited custom priorities from the Labels Settings page. Name them anything — VIP, Express, Wholesale, Rush — and assign them their own badge colour and label text. They appear everywhere in the plugin automatically.</p>
<h3>Can I assign priorities to orders I already have in the system?</h3>
<p>Yes. Use the bulk action on the WooCommerce Orders page to select existing orders and assign any priority level in one step — including custom levels.</p>
<h3>Is there a record of priority changes?</h3>
<p>Yes. Every priority change — whether made by a rule, a team member, or a bulk action — is logged as an order note with the old value, new value, user, and timestamp.</p>
<h3>Does it work with HPOS?</h3>
<p>Yes. Order Priority for WooCommerce is fully compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) as well as the standard WooCommerce order system.</p>
<h3>Will it affect my store’s performance?</h3>
<p>No. Priority assignment runs efficiently in the background during order creation and status changes — there is no impact on storefront speed, checkout performance, or page load times.</p>
<h3>What if it’s not right for my workflow?</h3>
<p>You are covered by a full 30-day money-back guarantee. If it does not fit your operations, request a refund — no questions asked.</p>
