You can select the products that should be automatically split from parent order whenever a new order includes these selected products.

You can choose to apply this split rule to specific user roles only. Leaving it empty will split every order that includes the above selected products.
Separate Order Type:
- Single: The selected products will be move to ONE new separate order. The rest of the products will remain in parent order.
