How to use add_submenu_page() for editors?

Question

Currently I load a custom WooCommerce sub menu point in an own plugin like:

// Add an additional submenupoint
add_action('admin_menu', 'register_mycustom_menupoint');
function register_mycustom_menupoint() {
    add_submenu_page( 'woocommerce', 'Name on Menubutton', 'Name on Menubutton', 'manage_options', 'custom-submenu-page', 'dsrv_init_backend' ); 
}

function call_this_function_name(){
    // ...
}

But this is only available for WP users at administration level. After searching the internet I tried to use edit.php?post_type=shop_order instead of woocommerce but then the menu point disappears. What do I have to change to fix it?

Woocommerce: 2.6.4, Wordpress: 4.6.11

You should use edit_posts capability instead of manage_options. manage_options is an administrator level capability. Try the following code -

add_submenu_page( 'woocommerce', 'Name on Menubutton', 'Name on Menubutton', 'edit_posts', 'custom-submenu-page', 'dsrv_init_backend' );
