GP Order Splitter allows your WooCommerce store to automatically split customer orders into multiple child orders based on smart conditional rules such as product categories, shipping classes, pricing conditions, product meta data, and shipping metrics.
This helps you streamline fulfillment, separate warehouse processing, and automate complex shipping workflows — without manual intervention.

FAQs
↑ Back to topHelp customers by answering commonly asked questions.
Does this affect customer checkout?
No. Customers complete checkout and payment once. Splitting happens after checkout and does not affect the front-end experience.
Can I disable splitting temporarily?
Yes. You can disable all or individual condition rules at any time.
Are previous orders affected?
No. Only new orders placed after enabling and configuring the plugin will be evaluated.
