WC Backorder Split

Changelog

2.2.0 - 2026-05-06

• Enhancement - Backorder order creation now suppresses WooCommerce emails to prevent duplicate new-order and processing notifications.
• Enhancement - Backorder order now inherits all standard order fields: currency, prices include tax, customer IP, user agent, transaction ID, date paid, date completed, and stock reduced flag.
• Enhancement - WooCommerce order attribution and VAT exemption meta fields are now copied to the backorder order.
• Enhancement - Line items are cloned (not re-added via add_product) preserving product variations, custom fields, and all item-level meta data.
• Enhancement - Per-unit prices are captured before any order mutation so discount-adjusted totals remain correct on both orders.
• Enhancement - _reduced_stock meta is now split proportionally between the original and backorder order items.
• Enhancement - Address indexes (_billing_address_index, _shipping_address_index) are now copied to the backorder order for correct address search results (HPOS-aware).
• Enhancement - Both orders are scheduled for WooCommerce Admin analytics re-import after a split so revenue reports stay accurate.
• Enhancement - Added wcbs_meta_fields_to_copy and wcbs_disable_emails_on_split filters for developer extensibility.
• Fix - Stock quantity 0 at cart time now correctly removes the item from the original order instead of leaving it duplicated across both orders.
• Fix - Removed erroneous add_item() call after in-place source item update that caused calculate_totals() to double-count the item.
