How to programmatically create an order in Magento 2 w/o using a cart/quote?

Question

I've read a lot of answers to similar question, however all of them are suggesting to create cart/quote and then call placeOrder() or something similar.

I need to create 'historical' orders. They differ from 'normal' orders:

1. They shouldn't affect current stocks
2. They may have items that are currently out of stock or disabled
3. They may have items prices that are different from current prices
4. Taxes, shipping prices, totals/subtotals are calculated in the past, so we should apply 'historical' values, and shouldn't let Magento 2 calculate them

Any help/thoughts?

Answer 1

I ended up creating order directly, skipping quote/cart.

/* @var $orderFactory \Magento\Sales\Model\OrderFactory */
$order = $orderFactory->create()->setStoreId($storeId);
$order
        ->setGlobalCurrencyCode($currency)
        ->setBaseCurrencyCode($currency)
        ->setStoreCurrencyCode($currency)
        ->setOrderCurrencyCode($currency);

/* @var $orderPaymentRepository \Magento\Sales\Api\OrderPaymentRepositoryInterface */
$orderPayment = $orderPaymentRepository->create();
$method = 'checkmo';
$orderPayment->setMethod($method);
$order->setPayment($orderPayment);

/* @var $customer \Magento\Customer\Model\Customer */
$order
        ->setCustomerId($customer->getId())
        ->setCustomerEmail($customer->getEmail())
        ->setCustomerFirstname($customer->getFirstname())
        ->setCustomerLastname($customer->getLastname())
        ->setCustomerGroupId($customer->getGroupId())
        ->setCustomerIsGuest(0);

/* @var $orderAddressRepository \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\AddressRepository */
$orderAddress = $orderAddressRepository->create();
$orderAddress
        ->setStoreId($storeId)
        ->setAddressType($addressType) // \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Address::TYPE_BILLING and then \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Address::TYPE_SHIPPING
        ->setCustomerId($customer->getId())
        ->setPrefix($prefix)
        ->setFirstname($firstName)
        ->setMiddlename($middleName)
        ->setLastname($lastName)
        ->setCompany($company)
        ->setStreet($address)
        ->setCity($city)
        ->setPostcode($postCode)
        ->setTelephone($phone)
        ->setFax($fax)
        ->setCountryId($countryCode)
        ->setRegionId($regionId);
$order->setBillingAddress($orderAddress);
// repeat for shipping address $order->setShippingAddress($orderAddress);

$order
        ->setShippingMethod('flatrate_flatrate')
        ->setShippingDescription('Flat Rate - Fixed');
$order->setCreatedAt(strtotime($orderDateTimeString));

// add order item
/* @var $product \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product */
/* @var $orderItemFactory \Magento\Sales\Model\Order\ItemFactory */
$orderItem = $orderItemFactory->create();
$orderItem
        ->setStoreId($storeId)
        ->setQuoteItemId(0)
        ->setQuoteParentItemId(NULL)
        ->setProductId($product->getId())
        ->setProductType($product->getTypeId())
        ->setQtyBackordered(NULL)
        ->setName($product->getName())
        ->setSku($product->getSku())
        ->setTotalQtyOrdered($qty)
        ->setQtyOrdered($qty)
        ->setPrice($itemPrice)
        ->setBasePrice($itemPrice)
        ->setOriginalPrice($itemPrice)
        ->setBaseOriginalPrice($itemPrice)
        ->setTaxAmount($rowTax)
        ->setBaseTaxAmount($rowTax)
        ->setTaxPercent($rowTaxPercent)
        ->setDiscountAmount($rowDiscount)
        ->setBaseDiscountAmount($rowDiscount)
        ->setRowTotal($rowTotal)
        ->setBaseRowTotal($rowTotal)
        ->setWeight(1)
        ->setIsVirtual(0);
$order->addItem($orderItem);
// repeat for each order item

// set status
$order->setStatus(\Magento\Sales\Model\Order::STATE_PROCESSING); // depends on your needs
$order->setState(\Magento\Sales\Model\Order::STATE_PROCESSING);

// set totals
$order->setBaseGrandTotal($baseGrandTotal);
$order->setGrandTotal($grandTotal);
$order->setBaseSubtotal($baseSubtotal);
$order->setSubtotal($subtotal);
$order->setBaseTaxAmount($baseTaxAmount);
$order->setTaxAmount($taxAmount);
$order->setBaseDiscountAmount($baseDiscountAmount);
$order->setDiscountAmount($discountAmount);
$order->setBaseSubtotalInclTax($baseSubtotalInclTax);
$order->setSubtotalInclTax($subtotalInclTax);
$order->setTotalItemCount($totalItemCount);
$order->setTotalQtyOrdered($totalQtyOrdered);

// set shipping amounts
$order->setShippingAmount($shippingAmount);
$order->setBaseShippingAmount($shippingAmount);
$order->setShippingTaxAmount($shippingTax);
$order->setBaseShippingTaxAmount($shippingTax);
$order->setShippingInclTax($shippingAmount + $shippingTax);
$order->setBaseShippingInclTax($shippingAmount + $shippingTax);

// set total paid if needed
$order->setTotalPaid($paid);
$order->setBaseTotalPaid($paid);
$order->save();

@Rustem, you can try this code which is used to create historical orders.
