How to Order Samples from Your Store

This tutorial aims to explain how to order samples of your products without passing through the standard checkout procedure in your store. Before creating manual orders, make sure that your store has been integrated with ShipStation.

Please note that these steps will not work for composite products (bundles). You can still order multiple products from different categories, but please do not order a pre-built bundle from your “Bundles” category. If you really need to order a pre-built bundle, then you’ll have to pretend that you are a client and order the bundle from the store front (not from the admin panel).

1. Log into your store dashboard.
2. Navigate to WooCommerce -> Orders

3. Click on the “Add order” button

4. Change the “Status” of your order to “Processing”

5. Fill in your Billing and Shipping addresses. You can leave the Payment method to “N/A”.

6. Click the “Add item(s)” button

7. Click the “Add product(s)” button

8. Select the products and the quantities you want to order and click “Add” when you are done.

9. Edit the price of all items in the cart to $0.00 and click “Save”

10. To finish your order you have to click on “Create”

That is all. We advise you to check your first manual order directly with Rocktomic’s operations team at [email protected]
