Packages to be Shipped

Hello @thehorsebc,

I have products that are shipped from multiple locations. Is there a way to not include products in a package that have already been shipped when creating a shipping label? Currently even if an item has been shipped, and status has been updated to partially shipped, when creating a label all items still show.

I see what you mean here, you want to exclude some products from the shipping label.

I believe our Per Product Shipping plugin can handle each product individually but I’m not sure how it integrates with shipping labels.

You can read more about the plugin here, if you have more or want to make sure the plugin is the right fit for your needs, you’re more than welcome to reach us via email at WooCommerce.com > MY profile > Support (Before I buy)

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info @babylon1999. I already have some code and settings that I wrote and another plugin that helps to separate the products on the front-end for shipping costs and separating them. I need to figure out how to do this with buying the shipping labels.

Like now with the option to create a new label, there should be an option to do partial shipments. Like the order should come in with the status of process; as items are filled, if we chose to use Woocommerce to purchase a label, when purchasing a label, in the packages-step the move-item.js should allow another option for no package/ already shipped. Or an option to select which items to put in the package.

So maybe instead of it selecting all products, it could have a selects like all or allow us to select the specific items. Then continue through the modal to purchase a label. And when we select Create new label, it could show o highlight the ones that were already shipped or maybe none at all.

Not sure if you can share this with the developers or not. I wasn’t sure if I should post it on Github.

Thanks.

Hi @thehorsebc

Thanks for providing further information about your end goal. As I understand that you want to have a function inside the WooCommerce Shipping & Tax plugin to do partial shipments, correct?

Currently, the plugin is unable to do partial shipments but we would love to hear more about this enhancement that you could submit here: https://woocommerce.com/feature-requests/shipping/#

Our developers look up to these feature requests to be added when a new version is to be rolled out.

Ok thanks. I submitted a feature request and looked on Github also. Looks like there are some mentions about a feature similar to this. For now I have created a filter to exclude specific items.

For anyone else needing this for the time being. I created a shipping class that excludes that shipping class from being added to the shipping package and set the needs_shipping = false in the code.
