Set up order and stock notifications for multiple users and third parties

The Advanced Notifications extension for WooCommerce lets you set up order and stock notifications for users other than the admin. These can be used for notifying staff and users of sales, sending stock notices to suppliers, or even sending new orders to drop shippers.

Within the plugin, you can create a recipient, give them a name, email address and other details. This new recipient can then be assigned notifications for events, such as:

  • Low stock
  • No stock
  • Backorders
  • New orders
Setup multiple recipients to receive emails

You can add criteria to notifications, should you wish to exclude some products:

  • Send notifications for products in a category
  • Send notifications for products in a shipping class
  • Set up per-product notifications
Choose per-product notifications

The notifications themselves, based on WooCommerce’s own emails, can be configured to include or exclude prices and order totals, and also only show data that is relevant. For example, if you set up notifications for a t-shirt, the notifications only list this product and ignore other items in the order. Woo!


Frequently asked questions

How can I send WooCommerce order notifications to people other than the site admin?

Advanced Notifications is a WooCommerce store alerts extension that lets you send order and stock notifications to recipients beyond the default admin user. You create a recipient, give them a name and one or more email addresses, and then assign the notifications they should receive. This is useful for keeping staff, suppliers, or drop shippers informed without routing emails manually.

What events can trigger a notification?

Advanced Notifications can send emails for new orders, low stock, no stock, and backorders. You assign each recipient the specific events they care about, so warehouse staff might receive stock alerts while a fulfillment partner receives new order details. This gives your team clear visibility into what needs attention as it happens.

Can I send notifications to multiple recipients?

Yes. Advanced Notifications lets you set up multiple recipients, each with their own name and email address or addresses. A single customer purchase can trigger emails to more than one person, which is helpful when several team members or partners need the same order or stock information. You can add as many recipients as your store requires.

Can I send different notifications for different products?

Yes. Advanced Notifications lets you add criteria so recipients only hear about relevant items. You can send notifications for products in a specific category, products in a particular shipping class, or set up per-product notifications. This is helpful for stores that work with multiple suppliers or drop shippers, since each partner can receive alerts only for the products they handle.

Can I hide prices and order totals from certain recipients?

Yes. Because the notifications are based on WooCommerce's own emails, you can configure them to include or exclude prices and order totals. This means you can share the order details a supplier or warehouse needs to fulfill an order without exposing financial information. You control what each recipient sees.

Will recipients only see the products that are relevant to them?

Yes. Advanced Notifications can be set to show only the data that is relevant to each recipient. For example, if you set up a notification for a specific product, that recipient's email lists only that product and ignores the other items in the order. This keeps supplier and fulfillment emails focused and reduces confusion.

Can Advanced Notifications help reduce manual work when routing orders?

It can help. Advanced Notifications is designed to route order and stock emails to the right people automatically based on the rules you set, so you do not have to forward messages by hand. Stores that aggregate items from several suppliers or work with drop shippers can use it to send each partner the orders that apply to them. This streamlines fulfillment communication as your team and supplier network grow.

Can Advanced Notifications help me keep stock levels under control?

It can help. By sending low stock, no stock, and backorder alerts to the people responsible for inventory, Advanced Notifications gives your team the information to reorder or restock in time. You can direct these alerts to a warehouse manager or supplier for all products or for a specific category. This supports smoother operations and fewer surprises when items run low.

Is this the right tool for sending marketing emails to customers?

Not really. Advanced Notifications is built for internal and operational alerts, such as notifying staff, suppliers, and drop shippers about orders and stock, rather than customer-facing marketing. If you want to send follow-up emails, promotions, or automated marketing to shoppers, a marketing automation extension like AutomateWoo is a better fit. Use Advanced Notifications to keep your team and partners informed behind the scenes.

Who is Advanced Notifications best for?

Advanced Notifications is best for stores that need to keep more than one person informed about orders and stock. That includes shops with warehouse or fulfillment staff, businesses working with suppliers or drop shippers, and teams where different departments handle different products. If you have outgrown the single admin notification email that WooCommerce sends by default, this extension gives you finer control over who gets what.

When should I not use Advanced Notifications?

Advanced Notifications may not be the right choice if your goal is to communicate with customers rather than your internal team or partners. It focuses on order and stock alerts for recipients like staff and suppliers, not customer marketing, on-site display notifications, or shopper-facing messaging. For customer follow-ups and promotions, consider AutomateWoo instead.

Do I need another extension to use Advanced Notifications?

No. Advanced Notifications works with WooCommerce and adds a Notifications area under the WooCommerce menu where you create recipients and assign their alerts. Setup is guided through the recipient and notification settings, without custom code. Like all email features, delivery depends on your site being able to send mail reliably.

Can I add supplier or drop shipper contact details for my own reference?

Yes. When you create a recipient, you can add extra details such as a telephone number and address alongside their name and email. These fields are for your own reference and are not used to send the notifications themselves. They give you a convenient place to keep partner contact information next to their alert settings.

    Highly unsuccessful in getting this plugin to work. WooCommerce informed us that we had to jump through a multitude of hoops to even get it working, stating that we need to install a plugin for SMTP mail plugin from a completely different company. Either way, after days and days and days of messing with this, I'm requesting a refund. How hard is it to get a notification sent to more than one person (literally, I need it to only go to three people).

      Hi orbitalapproach - Sorry to hear about the trouble but thanks for sharing that feedback. Advanced Notifications extends the default behavior in WooCommerce, which sends a request to the site's mail server anytime an email is supposed to be sent. This means that in many cases, if emails are not being sent or received, the problem could be related to the mail server and SMTP plugins can help with issues like that. Our team is happy to continue troubleshooting the issue or we can refund Advanced Notifications, if you'd prefer that option. Please reply to the email I just sent to you and let us know which option you'd like to move forward with and we'll go from there. Thanks.

    All you can do is setup a notification but you can't choose the content to send.
    Add a content area that allows you to choose what gets sent when an order is processed.

    The fact that I can set it up to send notifications to whoever needs them and withhold financial information if necessary.
    I haven't used it enough to evaluate.
