Hide WooCommerce admin submenu "Home" from shop manager

Question

I would like to hide a submenu 'home' in WooCommerce from shop manager.

I can hide/disable the wc-admin with the following code:

function AtoJ_remove_menus() {
    if (current_user_can( 'shop_manager' )) {
        // WooCommerce
        remove_submenu_page( 'woocommerce', 'wc-admin' );
    }
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'AtoJ_remove_menus', 999 );

But if I do it that way, it also disables the permission to access the WooCommerce Analytics admin section for shop manager.

To disable the Admin WooCommerce "Home" page (only) for specific user role, we can hide WooCommerce "Home" submenu item and redirect the related request to WooCommerce "Orders" page:

add_action( 'admin_head', 'disable_admin_woocommerce_home_fur_css' );
function disable_admin_woocommerce_home_fur_css() {
    $targeted_role = 'administrator'; // Here define the user role
    if ( current_user_can( $targeted_role ) ) :
    ?><style> li.toplevel_page_woocommerce ul li.wp-first-item {display:none !important;}</style><?php
    endif;
}


add_action( 'admin_menu', 'disable_admin_woocommerce_home_for_user_role', 999 );
function disable_admin_woocommerce_home_for_user_role() {
    global $submenu;
    $targeted_role = 'administrator'; // Here define the user role
    if ( current_user_can( $targeted_role ) ) {
        if ( isset($_GET['page']) && $_GET['page'] == 'wc-admin' && ! isset($_GET['path']) ) {
            wp_redirect( admin_url('edit.php?post_type=shop_order') );
            exit();
        }
    }
}

It will allow shop manager to access Analytics section.

Code goes in functions.php file of your child theme (or in a plugin). Tested and works.
