How to copy custom data from the quote item in Magento 2?

In Magento 2, you can’t use the fieldset to copy custom data from quote item to order item, so you must do some other action to do it.

Now I will show you how to a used plug-in to do it

1. Create a dt.XML file to an etc folder of the module to set up custom data

“app/code/Webnexs/TipAndTrick/etc”

2. Describe the code into this file, the following code:

<type name="Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem">

        <plugin name="tipandtrick_to_order_item" type="Webnexs\TipAndTrick\Model\Plugin\Quote\TipAndTrickToOrderItem"/>

    </type>

3. In this code, I describe a plug-in

“Webnexs\TipAndTrick\Model\Plugin\Quote\TipAndTrickToOrderItem” of class “Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem”

4. Then, I built a class

“Webnexs\TipAndTrick\Model\Plugin\Quote\TipAndTrickToOrderItem”

In to my module and describe the function” around convert” which will copy custom data from quote item to order item.

public function aroundConvert(

        \Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem $subject,

        \Closure $proceed,

        \Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\AbstractItem $item,

        $additional = []

    ) {

        /** @var $orderItem Item */

        $orderItem = $proceed($item, $additional);

$orderItem->setTipAndTrickCustomData($item->getTipAndTrickCustomData());

        return $orderItem;

    }

• In the first line of the function “$orderItem = $proceed($item, $additional);”this is the output of the function “convert” in class

“Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem”

• In the second line, set a value “TipAndTrickCustomData” this is the output of the function “convert” in class “Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem”.
• Then return an object $orderItem” which will restore the result of the function “convert” in class “Magento\Quote\Model\Quote\Item\ToOrderItem”.

I hope these above steps will be useful to you to copy the custom data from quote item to order item in Magento 2.
