How I can retrieve orders ready for shipment ?

    Hi to everybody. I want to automate the process of create the parcel. My idea is:
    1) On woocommerce admin I put the order into the status “xxxxx”
    2) Every 4 hours with API I retrieve the list of all orders in the status “xxxxx”
    3) I create the shipment by connecting to the carrier
    4) I change order status to “completed” by API

    The problem is that in woocommerce there is no “ready to ship” status
    Unfortunately it does not manage the tracking data that I could have used to understand which orders were still to be shipped (those without tracking)

    I don’t want to install an API for adding a new order status for this purpose or adding some code to woocommerce

    Any idea ?

    This is a fairly complex development topic. I’m going to leave it open for a bit to see if anyone is able to chime in to help you out.

I can also recommend <a href="https://developer.woocommerce.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">the WooCommerce Developer Resources Portal</a> for resources on developing for WooCommerce.

You can also visit the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/advanced.woocommerce/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">WooCommerce Facebook group</a> or the <code>#developers</code> channel of the <a href="https://woocommerce.com/community-slack/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">WooCommerce Community Slack</a>. We're lucky to have a great community of open-source developers for WooCommerce, and many of our developers hang out there, as well.

    Meanwhile, we recommend using this product to create custom statuses: https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-order-status-manager/
