WooCommerce Split Orders

Description

The Split Orders automatically divides a single WooCommerce order into multiple separate orders, grouping items according to configurable rules such as product category, supplier, shipping method, or digital versus physical products. It is designed for sellers who offer goods from different sources in the same cart and need each set of items to follow its own processing, fulfillment, and invoicing flow without manual intervention in the admin panel.
