Hi,

 

I think it would be great if "Ship Date" was a "Bulk Update" option. Right. now this is only possible to do inside each individual order (see attached photo).

 

We are a direct-to-consumer e-commerce company that only ships Monday-Thursday.

 

We would like to start printing our shipping labels on Friday and Saturday for Monday shipments.

 

I imagine many other users are in the same position and this would help their shipping workload!

 

This would help us greatly from an operational perpsective

Yes, please add this feature. I'm frustratingly having to go and change the ship date for the day after, for each of our shipments.


Yes!!! I am also dealing with this challenge right now. I end up having to ship out 100 orders on Mondays because going into each one is too time consuming. Would love to be able to bulk apply and have them done on Sundays.

It is too time consuming to update the ship dates one at a time... Please allow updating the ship date in bulk.

I agree. we could benefit from this greatly!


is that fixed ? shipstation ship date

TOTALLY agree!  We are in the same boat.  The FedEx Express carrier has to scan and print a special label for EVERY SINGLE SHIPMENT if the ship date is incorrect.  As you can imagine, this causes an absolute nightmare when shipping hundreds of orders.  Pleeeeease make this a high priority.  We need "update ship date" as a bulk feature and I'm absolutely sure this is something all D2C companies need.  Thanks!

SET FUTURE SHIP DATE

Thanks for the suggestion @VF58_2. I was excited but soon realised that this solution wouldn't work for my use case. We use Scan + Pack, selecting package types and printing labels as we go depending on the size and types of items. It looks like this method of setting future ship dates in bulk requires us to have already selected package types in order to create labels as batches.
