# Create cycle order (beta)

> Create a cycle order in-app with the New create order flow

With the **New create order flow** beta feature enabled, you pick the customer inside Supercycle, then add cycles and finish the order on the Shopify draft order.

***

## Create a new cycle order

You can create a cycle on behalf of a customer via the Shopify admin.

<Note>
  This flow requires the **New create order flow** beta feature. Enable it under [Settings > Beta features](https://admin.shopify.com/apps/supercycle/settings/features). For the standard flow, see [Create cycle order](/documentation/manage/cycles/create-cycles-order).
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="From the Supercycle admin go to Cycles">
    Go to Supercycle > Cycles.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Create cycle order" />

  <Step title="Pick or add a customer">
    Supercycle asks who the order is for before opening the Shopify draft order. Search for an existing Shopify customer by name or email in the customer picker and select them.

    If the customer doesn't exist yet, click **Add new customer** and enter their first name, last name, and email. Supercycle creates them in Shopify on the fly and selects them for the order. Email is required; first and last name are optional.

    <Note>
      The customer picker searches every customer in your Shopify store, not just customers already synced to Supercycle.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Continue to the draft order">
    Click **Continue**. Supercycle creates a Shopify draft order pre-filled with the customer you just selected.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add cycles to the draft order">
    On the draft order, select **More actions** > **Add cycles**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a method and start date">
    Choose a **cycle method** and **start date**. If the order already contains cycles, you can also pick from the **presets** based on them.

    <Note>
      Adding a product to the draft order will not create a cycle for that product — cycles must be added via Supercycle.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Do one of the following">
    * Accept payment from the customer by marking the order as paid or entering card details. Then create an order.
    * Set payment to due later. Then create an order.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Cycle order created">
    You will now have a Shopify order for that customer with cycles that can be seen in Supercycle Cycles.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Inventory added to the draft order is reserved automatically. See [Reserving cycle inventory on a draft order](/documentation/manage/cycles/create-cycles-order#reserving-cycle-inventory-on-a-draft-order).
