Large orders sometimes need more than one box. The ShipCelero Shopify extension can split a single order into multiple packages in one booking flow — each package gets its own label and tracking number.
Splitting an order in Shopify
- 1Open the order in Shopify Admin and start Generate Shipping Label
- 2On the Review step, enable Split order into multiple packages
- 3Click Add package for each extra box, and give packages a name if you like
- 4Assign the order line quantities to packages — every unit must be assigned and every package must contain something
- 5Set the dimensions and weight per package, or apply a package preset to each
- 6Create the labels — one label per package is booked in a single confirmation
What you get
- One label and tracking number per package
- Each package appears as its own shipment in ShipCelero, grouped under the same order
- Each label counts as one label towards your monthly allowance
Split booking is currently limited to shipments that do not require a customs declaration. For international orders that need customs, book the packages as separate shipments instead.
Manual shipments
The manual shipment wizard books one package per shipment. To send several packages to the same recipient outside Shopify, create one shipment per package — the Address Book makes re-entering the recipient quick.
