Import Shopify Shipping Labels

If you buy shipping labels in Shopify, Profitario can read the price of each label from the order's history in Shopify. The import is off until you turn it on.

Where

In the sidebar: Shipping, then Settings.

Who

Stores that buy their shipping labels in Shopify.

Time

1 minute.

Updates

An import of your existing orders starts right away. New labels follow with the hourly update.

Turn On the Import#

The import needs permission to read the order history. If Requires permission update is shown under the store's name, the switch first opens a request to update the app's permissions in Shopify.

What Happens Next#

• The import looks at orders of the last 12 months that have a fulfillment, because Shopify does not keep the label history longer. A large order history is imported in batches over several hourly updates.
• The cost of an order is the labels bought for it minus the labels voided for it, in your store's currency.
• For an order with a label, the label cost replaces your shipping rules and the amount the customer paid. Orders without a label keep the cost from the next source.
• If a carrier connection or a supplier also reports a cost for the same order, the amounts are added.

Limits#

• Label costs can be imported for the last 12 months only.
• A label cost and a rule are never added together, and a rule cannot top up a label cost.
