<p>The <strong>Clone Orders</strong> extension adds functionality for duplicating orders to streamline the process of adding similar orders quickly.</p>
<h3>Use Cases</h3>
<p>Having the power to duplicate orders lets you to build efficient processes and handle customer requests more quickly. This includes scenarios such as:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Handling exchanges for customers:</strong> Refund the returned items on the original order, clone to a new empty order, and add the exchanged item. You can then follow your usual order fulfillment process with the new order and your reporting will still be accurate.</li>
<li><strong>Manually inserting the same (or a similar) order for multiple customers:</strong> Create it once, then clone as many times as needed, just updating the customer details as required.</li>
<li><strong>Receiving repeat purchase orders from existing customers: </strong>Duplicate their last order and update as required to speed up an otherwise slow and tedious process.</li>
</ul>
