Enables custom fields to order or order Line

[gpm1976]

Hi All

Magento version 2.3.3

i am looking to create a custom field within order or order line.   requirements are

• this will be a text field and i would like to populate this by bulk uploading from csv.
• i do not want this field available at checkout stage.   this field is for admin use only.
• ideally the field would also be searchable when viewing all orders

thanks in advance for any extension recommendations or possible solutions

Hi Graeme,

Check out this extension: https://marketplace.magento.com/amasty-orderattr.html

There is a demo. I've used this extension before, and I think that it will meet your basic needs for creating and managing order attributes. It can also help you restrict whether an order attribute is displayed to shoppers, or only available to admins. (You selected whether the order attribute is "Visible on Frontend"). You determine which fields appear in the admin on the Orders page, so you can make it easier to sort and filter by these results. 

As far as bulk editing orders via CSV, that may require a separate extension that allows for Importing Orders / Editing Orders. I'm not familiar with an order attribute extension that also allows for editing via CSV. For instance, https://marketplace.magento.com/emagicone-module-bridgeconnector.html might do the trick. They have a free trial you could use for testing, or you could reach out to them for confirmation.

Best of luck!

Hello there!

Take a look at our Order Attributes extension. This module allows you to create an endless number of extra fields on the order grid. If it’s necessary, you can hide the attribute from the checkout page. It will still be available for your admins. Also, you can import attributes via API.

Some other important features:

• Choose any from 10 types of order attribute;
• Add attributes to emails and PDF documents automatically;
• Display attributes on the checkout page depending on your conditions.

Check it out!
