Can I create individual orders for each product, but still allow the customer to pay the total amount once at checkout?

Here’s my use case:

  • Let’s say a user adds 4 products like (t-shirts) to the cart and places an order.
  • By default, Shopify creates one single order with all 4 items.
  • But what I want is: each product should become an individual order (4 separate orders).
  • However, the user should still pay the total amount once.

The reason: If the customer cancels one t-shirt, only that item/order should be canceled and refunded, not the entire order.

Can I achieve it?

I think this is a bit of the wrong way around.

You can edit/remove line items on a order regardless of how many line items they order. Or you can use exchange/returns as well here.
So you shouldn’t need to create individual orders for each line item.
