Postmeta and WC Order Itemmeta Tables that store Scheduled Order related data

WooCommerce (and Wordpress) allows custom metadata to be stored in the Wordpress database. Autoship Cloud powered by QPilot utilizes this powerful feature to do things like:

  • Share schedule (or custom) data on products selected for Autoship with QPilot for Scheduled Orders created from checkout orders
  • Add unique Autoship data to WooCommerce orders used in identifying and processing Scheduled Orders

This article identifies the metadata specific to Autoship on WooCommerce checkout orders which create Scheduled Orders and WooCommerce orders created from Schedule Order processing.
