Description
Keep every order moving with Out the Door. Organize order-related tasks, manage partial shipments, and create custom order statuses, all from within WordPress.
Whether you’re coordinating fulfillment tasks, shipping an order in multiple batches, or building a workflow that fits your business, Out the Door gives your team a clear view of what needs to happen next.
Order Task Management
Turn each WooCommerce order into an actionable workflow by adding tasks directly to it. Every task can include:
- A title and description
- A priority level
- A status, such as In Progress or Completed
- A due date
See outstanding and completed tasks on the order screen, so your team knows what’s done and what still needs attention.
For a broader view, use the dashboard to check tasks due today or review all tasks in a visual Kanban board or calendar view. Prioritize work, track progress, and keep important order-related actions from being overlooked.
Partial Shipments
Not every order is ready to ship at once. Out the Door lets you mark any quantity of an ordered item as shipped while keeping the remaining quantity open for later fulfillment.
When part of an order ships, the order is marked as partially shipped. The dashboard brings partially shipped orders together in one place, showing:
- Which products have already shipped
- The quantity shipped for each product
- Which products and quantities still need to be sent
Keep track of split shipments, manage backorders, and coordinate staggered fulfillment with a clear view of what’s shipped and what’s still outstanding.
Custom Order Statuses
Build an order workflow that reflects how your store operates. Out the Door lets you create as many custom order statuses as you need, giving your team a clear way to track the stages that matter to your business.
Use custom statuses to make each order’s progress easier to understand and keep everyone working from the same information.
Get Your Orders Out the Door
