Welcome to Superco: On Shopify, a weekly bulletin to keep you up to date with Shopify Plus news and updates.
Nine changes this week, and a few that require a lot of information, so bear with us as we detail everything you need to know.
If you have a specific question related to Shopify, get in touch with the team at tm@superco.io — we’re always happy to chat.
Introducing the new ‘Ship from store’ feature, showcased at Winter Editions ‘24. This new fulfilment workflow gives retail staff the ability to fulfil online orders assigned to stores, directly from POS.
This update means the new ‘Ship from store feature’ now surfaces orders due for shipping in the orders tab. Permissioned staff can pick, pack and ship them.
To get started, there are a few steps required: ensure retail locations are configured to fulfil online orders, determine your ideal order routing, and review your Shopify Shipping setup.
Once ready, staff can navigate to an assigned order, tap the ‘Prepare for shipping’ tile, and use a barcode scanner or camera to check off items. They can also print a packing slip via document printer, and purchase a shipping label through Shopify Shipping to print through a wireless label printer.
If your staff can’t complete an order, they can tap the ‘Reassign fulfilment’ tile to reassign the remainder of an order to the next best location.
“Buy X Get Y” discount codes can now be configured on Shopify POS. This new feature enables you to enhance in-store selling and promotional strategies, and reaches a milestone that allows all admin-defined discounts to be supported on POS.
Shopify has introduced POS device language settings. Now, you can customise the language displayed on your POS devices to cater to the language of each retail location.
Once a specified language is enabled, the POS device will automatically display translations on your POS channel. This translation will be reflected across printed and email receipts.
You can now check metafield values in the Flow app with ease. Each resource (product, orders, etc) has a new field. When you choose a metafield, you can select from a list of known options.
Selecting the metafield will generate an alias, which Flow uses to get the metafield data, and can be used in subsequent steps, and liquid. The variable will show up in a group titled Fields, with arguments.
You can also use metafield types in Flow.
For example, a product reference named ‘recipe’ would allow you to get the title of the product in that reference, like {{ product.recipe.value.title }}.
Why? Previously when trying to check metafields in Flow, you needed to loop over the metafields list on resources. However, metafields accessed this way were all treated like a string, and could cause performance issues. The old way of accessing metafields will be deprecated from the Flow app soon.
Checkout shipping orders in the cart (Apr 25)
Previously, when building a ‘Ship to customer’ order, staff could not edit or exit the cart until the purchase was completed. Now, the ‘Ship to customer’ workflow is fully integrated, so changes can be made without losing information in progress.
Now, when products are added to the cart and shipping is chosen as the fulfilment method, staff are required to add customer information, customer shipping address, and shipping method. Adding a customer to a ‘Ship to customer’ order has moved to the top of the cart.
When adding an existing customer with addresses on file, staff can select the customers preferred address from the available list by tapping “Add Shipping Address”. New customers' addresses are automatically filled in when all address information is added to their profile.
If staff have the ‘Ship to customer’ permission, but do not have permission to add customers or manage customers, they will still be able to add a customer when checking out a shipping order. This is the only instance where add and manage customer permissions will be overridden.
When selecting the shipping method, the best shipping rate is automatically selected based on the cart’s content. Staff can change this rate or apply a custom rate, by tapping the ‘Shipping Rate’ button.
Changes to the cart's contents might invalidate the selected rate unless a custom rate was provided. Staff will be notified with a dialog prompt about changes to the selected rate if the price of the cheapest available rate is higher than the previously selected.
If staff proceed to checkout with incomplete customer information, a validation error screen will display, listing the missing information required for checkout.
Whether you need to use similar forms across different pages or want to create a modified version of a previously used form, you can now save time and effort by duplicating a previous form.
Customers using Shop Pay can now set a default address for a more streamlined checkout experience. Default addresses are automatically pre-selected during the Shop Pay checkout process, effectively minimising order cancellations caused by wrong shipping addresses.
Customers can update their default address through the Shop app, or during the checkout process online.
Return rules in POS (Apr 29)
In version 9.8 of the Shopify POS app, Shopify has added return rules support. Return rules are structured policies that can now be used whether the return happens in store, or online.
Return rules are configured in the Shopify Admin. Saved policies determine a products' eligibility for return once the item is added. When products are ineligible, POS will surface additional context to staff on why it cannot be returned.
‘Return Window’ and ‘Final Sale’ are the return rules that will be applicable to POS, and evaluated on each item in an order.
If a product is ineligible for a return and staff determine the product should be returned anyway, managers with associated permissions can override.
Market metafields available as a dynamic source in the online store editor (Apr 29)
The online store editor now supports market metafields as a dynamic source. This update allows you to integrate market metafields into your storefronts, enhancing the customisation and functionality of your online stores for different markets.
Storefront filters now include better support for images (May 01)
Visuals filters now have better support for images in the Search & Discovery app, helping customers quickly understand different options and find the products that interest them most.
