Add woocommerce order with customer pre-populated

We have a store that receives a lot of mail orders. While I’m working on incentives to migrate channels, we need to support the staff for entering those orders when they come in. We have enabled an internal email addres that we can allow multiple users to use and implemented better user search in the admin area, but need to pass the user into the order to make the flow efficient for the user.

So I’m wanting to add a function to create an order from a customer record (the edit customer screen and creating an option in the username hover on all users) that will open the add order screen in the admin area and populate the customer that it was launched from in that order.

I can’t find a function that will allow me to do it. I can’t see anything in the documentation, an googling it doesn’t even surface anyone who has tried. Is there something I’m missing?

Thanks
Ian
