I have a custom order status called 'quote', and I have added the following code to try and prevent stock levels being decremented for orders with this status.
function bw_do_not_reduce_quote_stock( $reduce_stock, $order ) {
if ( $order->has_status( 'quote' ) ) {
$reduce_stock = false;
}
return $reduce_stock;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_can_reduce_order_stock', 'bw_do_not_reduce_quote_stock', 10, 2 );
This works for orders placed on the front-end website. But if the admin adds or edits an order on the backend, the stock is decremented.
Is there an alternative hook for the backend? Or am I missing something else?
