How Autoship Processes Repeat Orders: Advanced Automation

The Autoship Cloud plugin’s hosted service, QPilot, processes orders using your site’s the WooCommerce REST API (link to WC REST API). This enables repeat order processing to take place in the cloud so that your site doesn’t get bogged down running tons of code and cron jobs just to process repeat orders. It’s also a really nice backup just in case your site has any issues – your repeat orders are still hosted & protected in the cloud!

When a repeat order is due to process, the order shows up in your WooCommerce Orders just like an order that came through the checkout – process, fulfill and track repeat orders just as you normally do.

• Notify customers (n) days before their order processes
• Only a few functions on the checkout page to keep your site load speed fast!
• Set time of day to process repeat orders daily
• Start processing orders in advance of their next occurrence date. Great for business that need a day or two to fulfill and ship orders.
• Set a custom “changeable before” option for your site to prevent changes to upcoming orders X days before they ship. Includes a feature to send a custom email notification to let your customers know how much time they have to make changes!
• Orders processed via the WooCommerce REST API means that your site can easily scale to process many repeat orders without stressing your WordPress site or hosting! No more headaches with the WordPress Cron or Action Schedulers dragging your site performance.

It’s easy to view and track checkout orders that originate Autoship and Product Subscriptions as well as orders created (via the WooCommerce REST API) from processing repeat Scheduled Orders. See an explanation of that in-depth on our documentation: How Scheduled Orders are Linked to WooCommerce Orders.

For detailed and technical information on how Autoship Cloud’s hosted service, QPilot, processes orders with WooCommerce, please see our full documentation here: How an Autoship Scheduled Order is Processed.
