Destructive

Update an order's status, note, billing, or shipping

Requires WooCommerce plugin.

Description

Marking an order shipped, correcting a mis-typed address, and leaving a customer note are the three most repeated actions in order management — and all three can be handled through Easy MCP AI without touching the WordPress admin. Tell Claude.ai or Windsurf to update the order status or swap the delivery address, and Easy MCP AI applies the change to WooCommerce in real time. Only the fields you mention are modified, so there is no risk of accidentally overwriting the rest of the order record.
