  • From this section, you can create a recap of all your orders waiting to be shipped by clicking on Create an Order List.

  • If you'd like to include more details and Create an Invoice, click on Create invoice or order summary

 

5. What do background colours of the orders mean?

You may have wondered why your orders sometimes appear with Yellow, Blue or Pink background, here's what they mean:

  • Yellow Background: the order has a note.

  • Blue Background: the order is in Pending Payment status (waiting for COD or bank transfer payment).

💡Note: The value of Cash On Delivery is automatically imported from your sales channels. 

  • Pink: the order has been moved back in To Ship after encountering error in Shipping Labels section.

 

6. Are you looking for a specific order?

Then try to look for the order you were interested in by using our search bar on the top of the page or CTRL + F from Windows and Command + F on Mac.

You can search your orders by entering:

  • Customer name

  • Date

  • Order ID / Transaction ID

  • SKU

❓ Why I can’t delete my old Marketplace connection?

Even if you delete a Marketplace connection, you may still see it in the To Ship section: if this occurs, please wait 10 minutes, clear your browser’s cache and try logging into your ShippyPro profile again.
Important: in case you have ever imported orders from an Excel file, the Excel tab will not disappear, even if no further orders are imported with this method.

  

❓ Why is the ShippyPro logo spinning when I try to ship my parcel?

In this case, check if your item description contains the string file (...) , for example "nail file (1x)". In that case, make sure to modify it by deleting either the word "file" or the brackets.

Since the description has the combination file (...), the XSS thinks this is a malicious XSS function and stops the code, it's the standard PHP check.
