Shopify Data Migration: Understanding Order Fulfillment Dates

When migrating your store to Shopify using a data migration service like Cart2Cart, understanding how order fulfillment statuses are transferred is crucial. Here's a breakdown of how Cart2Cart handles order fulfillment dates and statuses during your Shopify migration.

How Cart2Cart Sets Order Fulfillment Statuses During Shopify Migrations

Cart2Cart intelligently assigns a fulfillment status to each order in your Shopify store based on two key factors: the order's existing status in your source store and the presence of a tracking number.

• Tracking Number Present: If an order has a tracking number in your source store, Cart2Cart will automatically set its fulfillment status to "fulfilled" in Shopify.
• Order Status:
  • Refunded or Paid: If the order's status in your source store is "refunded" or "paid," Cart2Cart will set the fulfillment status to "fulfilled" in Shopify.
  • Partially Refunded or Partially Paid: If the order's status is "partially_refunded" or "partially_paid," the fulfillment status will be set to "partially fulfilled."
  • Other Statuses: In all other cases, Cart2Cart will set the order's fulfillment status to "not fulfilled."

Please note: Each order will migrate to Shopify with an assigned fulfillment status depending on order status value and tracking number presence. This ensures accurate record-keeping and helps maintain consistency in your Shopify store. Leveraging Cart2Cart for your data migration streamlines this process, saving you time and effort.

Understanding the "Fulfilled Date" on Shopify After Migration

The "Fulfilled Date" on Shopify represents the date when an order was marked as fulfilled. When Cart2Cart migrates orders and sets the fulfillment status to "fulfilled," the "Fulfilled Date" in Shopify will generally reflect the migration date. However, this can depend on the specifics of your source platform and the data available.

Example: Let's say you're migrating from Magento to Shopify. If an order in Magento has a status of "Complete" and includes a tracking number, Cart2Cart will migrate it to Shopify with a "fulfilled" status. The "Fulfilled Date" in Shopify will typically be the date the migration occurred.

Data Migration Tip

To ensure the most accurate fulfillment information in your Shopify store after migration, verify that your source store's order data is as complete and accurate as possible before starting the data migration.
