Create Custom Order Status Programatically in Adobe Commerce (Magento 2)

Let’s learn how to create custom order status in Adobe Commerce (Magento 2)

I am using Setup script to create custom order status. We can achieve this by using the following methods:

1st Method: Using InstallData file
Create a file in you custom module like:
Webkul/OrderManagement/Setup/InstallData.php

<?php
/**
 * Webkul Software
 *
 * @category Webkul
 * @package Webkul_OrderManagement
 * @copyright Webkul Software Private Limited (https://webkul.com)
 * @license https://store.webkul.com/license.html
 */
namespace Webkul\OrderManagement\Setup;

use Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallDataInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;
use Magento\Framework\DB\Ddl\Table;

class InstallData implements InstallDataInterface
{
    /**
     * Installs DB schema for a module
     *
     * @param SchemaSetupInterface $setup
     * @param ModuleContextInterface $context
     * @return void
     */
    public function install(ModuleDataSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context)
    {
        $installer = $setup;
        $installer->startSetup(); 

        $data[] = ['status' => 'approved', 'label' => 'Approve'];
        $data[] = ['status' => 'disapproved', 'label' => 'Disapprove'];
        $setup->getConnection()->insertArray($setup->getTable('sales_order_status'), ['status', 'label'], $data);

        $setup->getConnection()->insertArray(
        $setup->getTable('sales_order_status_state'),
        ['status', 'state', 'is_default','visible_on_front'],
        [
            ['approved','processing', '0', '1'], 
            ['disapproved', 'pending', '0', '1']
        ]
        );

        $setup->endSetup();
    }
}

InstallData conforms to InstallDataInterface , which requires the implementation of the install method that accepts two parameters of type ModuleDataSetupInterface and ModuleContextInterface .

Note: The module’s module.xml file must have setup_version to create customer custom attribute using InstallData. To know steps to create module in Adobe Commerce (Magento 2),  you can check our another blog here.

2nd Method: Using Data Patch
In this method, we need to create a data patch file as OrderStatus.php in our custom module Setup folder. Note: You can also use the different file name and class name.
complete path: app/code/Webkul/OrderManagement/Setup/Patch/Data/OrderStatus.php

<?php
namespace Webkul\OrderManagement\Setup\Patch\Data;

use Magento\Framework\Setup\Patch\DataPatchInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;

class OrderStatus implements DataPatchInterface
{
    /**
     * @var ModuleDataSetupInterface
     */
    private $moduleDataSetup;

    /**
     * @param ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup
     */
    public function __construct(
        ModuleDataSetupInterface $moduleDataSetup,
    ) {
        $this->moduleDataSetup = $moduleDataSetup;
    }

    /**
     * Add eav attributes
     */
    public function apply()
    {
        $installer = $this->moduleDataSetup;
        $installer->startSetup();
        $data[] = ['status' => 'approved', 'label' => 'Approve'];
        $data[] = ['status' => 'disapproved', 'label' => 'Disapprove'];
        $this->moduleDataSetup->getConnection()->insertArray(
            $this->moduleDataSetup->getTable('sales_order_status'),
            ['status', 'label'],
            $data
        );
        $this->moduleDataSetup->getConnection()->insertArray(
            $this->moduleDataSetup->getTable('sales_order_status_state'),
            ['status', 'state', 'is_default','visible_on_front'],
            [
                ['approved','processing', '0', '1'],
                ['disapproved', 'pending', '0', '1']
            ]
        );
        $installer->endSetup();
    }

    /**
     * Get dependencies
     */
    public static function getDependencies()
    {
        return [];
    }

    /**
     * Get Aliases
     */
    public function getAliases()
    {
        return [];
    }
}

After that run: php bin/magento setup:upgrade command
