Answer 1

A order in WooCommerce is stored as as WordPress post with post_type = 'shop_order' in the table wp_posts.
Each order item in the order is stored in wp_woocommerce_order_items, with additional information about each order item line in the table wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta.
To add a new order:
Insert a new order into the wp_posts table
Add the requested order lines into wp_woocommerce_order_items
For each of the order lines, add the order line details into wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta.
Example data from a MySQL dump:
INSERT INTO wp_posts VALUES (38,1,'2014-06-09 10:02:00','2014-06-09 10:02:00','','Order – June 9, 2014 # 10:02 AM','','publish','closed','closed','','order','','','2014-06-09 10:02:43','2014-06-09 10:02:43','',0,'http://example.com/?post_type=shop_order&p=38',0,'shop_order','',0);
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_items VALUES (33,'My product','line_item',38);
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (167,33,'_qty','1');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (168,33,'_tax_class','');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (169,33,'_product_id','20');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (170,33,'_variation_id','');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (171,33,'_line_subtotal','13');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (172,33,'_line_subtotal_tax','');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (173,33,'_line_total','13');
INSERT INTO wp_woocommerce_order_itemmeta VALUES (174,33,'_line_tax','');
I would recommend that you try manually creating an order in the database with the settings you want the generated order to have, that way you see the relations and the various settings that you will need to set manually.

I spent many hours on this code - so I want to share it.
It creates a new order, with one product, adds shipment to the order with the flat rate of shipment, by the postcode of the customer.
I use it to create subscription orders for my clients.
function create_order($user_id, $product_id)
{
$order = wc_create_order();
$order->set_created_via("subscription");
$product = wc_get_product($product_id);
$order->add_product($product, $quantity);
$order_id = $order->get_id();
$postcode = get_user_meta($user_id, 'shipping_postcode', true);
$package = array('destination' => array('country' => 'IL', 'postcode' => $postcode));
$zone = WC_Shipping_Zones::get_zone_matching_package($package);
$method = WC_Shipping_Zones::get_shipping_method( $zone->get_id() );
This was the hardest to find out. The get_shipping_method returns class name. The next line create instance of it.
$shipping = new $method;
Now get the price of the shipment:
$rate = new WC_Shipping_Rate();
$rate->id = 'flat_rate';
$rate->label = 'shipment';
$rate->cost = $shipping->cost;
$rate->calc_tax = 'per_order'; // Not sure about this one
// Adding it to the order
$order->add_shipping($rate);
$order->calculate_totals();
// assign the order to the current user
update_post_meta($order->get_id(), '_customer_user', $user_id);
// payment_complete
$order->payment_complete();`
Copy billing and shipment info
foreach (array('billing_first_name',
'billing_last_name',
'billing_phone',
'billing_address_1',
'billing_address_2',
'shipping_first_name',
'shipping_last_name',
'shipping_address_1',
'shipping_address_2',
'shipping_city',
'shipping_postcode') as $key) {
$values = get_user_meta($user_id, $key);
update_post_meta($order_id, "_" . $key, $values[0]);
}
