Order templates allow product templates to be saved for future orders. An order template can be stored against a specific user, role or customer account. Product order lines on an order template can be partially or completely copied to the user's cart. 


Use cases: Your business customers wants some of their users based on role to have easy access to regularly-ordered products prepared with quantities, prices and ordering notes for future orders. Your staff can create order templates for users in their accounts.
