How to Mark Sales Orders as Shipped [Step-by-Step Guide]

You can mark sales orders as shipped to prevent any additional shipments.

To do so, the orders must be in the fulfilling state, and none of the associated shipments can have the status ready to send or sent to warehouse.

When you perform this action, any allocated but unfulfilled inventory will be released. Additionally, the order will be closed on the sales channel, and any held shipment will be pushed back to it, if applicable.

NOTE: Be sure to understand how sales order statuses and shipment statuses are linked by referring to How Does Partial Fulfillment/Receipt Work before continuing.

This article is divided into the following sections:

• Marking a batch of sales orders as shipped

NOTE: Make sure that you are operating at the right vendor or warehouse beforehand.
