Ability to Copy an Order

[Rael_Morris]

There are several situations in which I would like to be able to copy an order. This feature would create a new order identical to the one already in the system, including customer information, credit card information, etc... I could then edit the original and copied order in situations where this is helpful. One situation is when the customer calls in to add to the original order that has already been processed and shipped -- this would be the easiest way to manually create the new order (copy the original order, and then edit the copied order). I could also use this feature in scenarios where I have an order that has 2 items being ordered, one I have in stock, the other is backordered. I would effectively like to split the original order into two seperate orders and manage them seperately. An order copy feature would enable me to do this very easily.

While I still like the overall idea, you can already do this within the same order:

You can do this today by using the Split function in Manage Orders.
