<p>The <strong>Split Orders</strong> extension gives you the power to process and ship part of a customer’s order separately. <span style="font-weight: 400">You can choose the quantity of each item to be split to a new order, assigned to the same customer, with matching shipping and billing details.</span></p>
<h3>Use cases</h3>
<p>With split orders you can respond flexibly to different situations with orders, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>When you have an order which is only partially ready to be shipped, or contains products on backorder. With the <strong>Split Orders</strong> plugin you don’t have to keep the customer waiting — split the delayed items to a new order so that you can ship the products you have available.</li>
<li>When you use different couriers for different parts of an order and want to attach tracking information for each shipment. Split the order to match shipments and attach tracking information to each order using <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/shipment-tracking/">Shipment tracking</a>.</li>
<li>When the customer asks you to ship part of an order to a different address. Split those items to a new order, update the shipping address, and process each order separately.</li>
</ul>

<p>Having the power to split orders will help you keep on top of order management and shipments. Customers will appreciate receiving prompt delivery for the part of an order that’s ready to ship, or for being able to flexibly accommodate their shipping requirements.</p>

<h2>Custom WooCommerce Order Statuses Completely Integrated into your Workflow</h2>
<p>The <strong>WooCommerce Order Status Manager</strong> allows you to create, edit, and delete custom order statuses and integrate them seamlessly into your WooCommerce order management flow. You can also edit core order statuses and trigger new order emails based on status changes.</p>
<p>Custom order statuses will be used in your orders list, and can even be integrated into the <strong>order actions</strong> or <strong>bulk actions</strong> for a completely seamless fulfillment workflow.</p>
<figure id="attachment_826581" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-826581" style="width: 950px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-orders.png"><img class="size-large wp-image-826581" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-orders.png?w=950" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager: Statuses in action" width="950" height="367" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-826581" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Statuses in action</em></figcaption></figure>
<p>New <strong>order emails</strong> can also be triggered as an order status change notifier. You can trigger emails based on changes between custom statuses or core statuses so that customers and/or shop admins are always informed of order updates and changes.</p>

<h3>Add New Order Statuses</h3>
<p>You can add a new order status and select an icon to display in the orders list (which replaces the text badge for a status name). Action buttons can also be added if this will be used as “next status” by another status in your order flow. You can also add next statuses to determine which actions buttons should be displayed for this status.</p>
<figure id="attachment_826572" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-826572" style="width: 950px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-status.png"><img class="size-large wp-image-826572" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-status.png?w=950" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager: Create a Status" width="950" height="594" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-826572" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Create a Status</em></figcaption></figure>
<h3>Edit Core Statuses</h3>
<p>You can edit a core WooCommerce order status to add “next statuses”. For example, you can add a custom status as a <em>next status</em> for “processing” orders, which will display your custom status action button for any processing order.</p>
<p>This makes order management simple, fast, and easy to use, as custom statuses are completely integrated into the orders workflow.</p>
<h3>Add New Order Emails</h3>
<p>New order emails can be added based on order status changes, including changes with custom order statuses. When these emails are added, they can be edited and enabled in your WooCommerce email lists, or the template can be overridden in your theme for greater control over the content.</p>
<figure id="attachment_155858" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-155858" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-email.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-155858" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/woocommerce-order-status-manager-new-email.png" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager new email" width="550" height="257" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-155858" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Create an email</em></figcaption></figure>
<h3>Display Status Information to Customers</h3>
<p>Customers can be frustrated by order management when they don’t know where their orders are. While your statuses are meant to help in your fulfillment workflow, displaying a status like “Manufactured” or “Assembling” doesn’t tell customers anything.</p>
<p>You can now set a description for any status (including core statuses!) that will be shown to customers when they mouse over the order status.</p>
<figure id="attachment_159153" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-159153" style="width: 550px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-recent-orders.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-159153" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/woocommerce-order-status-manager-recent-orders.png?w=550" alt="WooCommerce Order Status Manager Orders List" width="550" height="380" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-159153" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Customer View</em></figcaption></figure>
<h3>Complete Order Status Management</h3>
<p>Rather than adding one-off statuses that don’t integrate with the rest of your emails, statuses, or fulfillment process, you can now completely embed custom statuses into your order management scheme. Use custom icons, action buttons, and new emails to tailor orders to your store and helpt to automate your order management.</p>
