I had the same problem and I was pulling my hair, until I made this change (not sure if all steps necessary but it works on my side) in order to stop having draft orders and inventory being messed up.
– installed classic editor (I personally don’t like the block editor, I’m old school)
– edit checkout page -> click on view text (rather than visual)
– replace the “new and improved checkout page” code with [woocommerce_checkout]
– NO MORE DRAFT ORDERS
Having draft orders with all empty fields does not help the shop or the customer. Please provide the option of creating a draft order automatically only when at least one desired field (email, phone etc) is not empty.
Please disable orders with status $status === ‘checkout-draft’ because it breaks CRM integration.
The ability to disable draft orders should definitely be added. This doesn’t really matter to many users and creates overhead on the database.
Yes, for me this has created a lot of headaches with multi channel selling.
It’s triggering email alerts. Definitely needs to be an option to disable.
Yes please. This especially screws up Invoice and Transaction totals in JetPack CRM.
