Plugins / Laqi Order Status Workflows
Build visual WooCommerce workflows that react, observe, audit, and process orders safely at scale.
Laqi Order Status Workflows overview
Laqi Order Status Workflows turns repeated decisions into visible workflows. Build the trigger, conditions, and actions in WooCommerce, preview the result, and keep the operational evidence needed to understand what happened later.
Why it is different
Laqi Order Status Workflows handles decisions that depend on the order, the customer, elapsed time, an external system, or a controlled backlog run.
| Option | Best for | Where it stops |
|---|---|---|
| WooCommerce settings | One global behaviour such as holding stock for a fixed period. | Cannot inspect each order or coordinate several actions. |
| Custom snippets | One stable workflow maintained by a developer. | You own its scheduling, security, observability, and recovery. |
| Laqi Order Status Workflows This plugin | Store-managed workflows that must stay understandable and controlled. | Each workflow still needs a clearly defined trigger, conditions, and outcome. |
Give rules descriptive names, combine nested AND/OR groups, stack actions, and verify the plain-language summary. Preview any draft against recent orders to confirm it matches what you expect before saving. The rules table uses the available page width so long titles and controls remain readable.
Free rules react when an order enters a status. Premium workflows can also wait for time in status, run a bounded weekly sweep, or expose a replay-protected HMAC endpoint to a WMS, ERP, or 3PL.
Free rules change status, add notes or tags, assign staff, set safe metadata, email, call a signed webhook, or notify Slack and Teams. Premium conditional actions branch on order data and Premium sequences re-check safety before every delayed step.
Free activity history shows every firing with its rule, order, action, and time. Premium Recent observations and Audit trail tabs use bounded, paginated records; audit filters and CSV export support review, and reversible actions can be undone only while their recorded post-state is unchanged.
Free settling delays, re-validation, loop protection, a global pause, bounded batches, cancellation and resume keep automation controlled. Premium retention limits for observations and audit records live with the other Settings controls.
Observe mode leaves a rule enabled but holds its actions, recording what it would have done to real orders over days rather than in a single check. Backfill requires dates and statuses, previews a bounded selection, and separates review from execution.
