Where do staff see the date inside Shopify?
Your staff see it on the order page itself, in the Bird Order Details block.
| You can | What happens | For example |
|---|---|---|
| See every fulfilment detail in one place | Method and location badges, the scheduled date and time, the store address for pickups, the collector's name, phone and email, the order note, and the pickup security code. | Example: Staff open an order and immediately see pickup location, 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM slot, and collector phone number. |
| See status without jumping between apps | The Bird status (Ready for Pickup, Out for Delivery or Complete) shows as a badge. | Example: A picker sees Ready for Pickup on the order page before packing. |
| Update a scheduled slot from Shopify admin | Your staff can use Edit to change the scheduled slot without opening Bird. | Example: A customer calls to move pickup to 4:00 PM, and staff update it on the order page. |
| Make it visible for the whole team | The block appears on order pages automatically. Pin it so all staff see it by default. | Example: After pinning, every team member sees Bird details first when an order opens. |
Can the date go in the Shopify order note?
Yes. Turn on Append Date/Time to order note and Bird writes it in for you.
Can the date go in the Shopify order note?
Yes. Turn on Append Date/Time to order note and Bird writes it in for you.
| You can | What happens | For example |
|---|---|---|
| Keep schedule info in a clean note section | The details sit in a separate section of the note and update when the customer changes them. | Example: If a customer reschedules, the note reflects the new date and time. |
| Format the note the way your team reads it | Choose the wording and order using placeholders such as delivery_method, delivery_date, delivery_time, delivery_location and collector_name, and Bird fills them in for each order. | Example: You place delivery_date first so packers spot timing details faster. |
| Match the customer's language | Translate the note's labels and values into the language the customer ordered in. English is the fallback. | Example: French checkout orders show French labels in the order note. |
| Avoid order note surprises | It applies to orders placed after you turn it on, orders older than 60 days aren't updated, and Shopify notes are capped at 5,000 characters. | Example: A four-month-old order keeps its old note because it is beyond the 60-day update range. |
How do I print the date on packing slips?
With the order note on, the date flows to everything that prints the note.
How do I print the date on packing slips?
With the order note on, the date flows to everything that prints the note.
| You can | What happens | For example |
|---|---|---|
| Print date and method on packing slips | Shopify's packing slip shows the order note. Swap one short piece of code in Shopify's packing slip settings, copied from Bird's guide, to put each detail on its own line, with translated labels if you need them. | Example: Your packing slip prints method, date, time, and location on separate lines. |
| Use a template app for custom slip design | Use the Order Printer Pro app if you want to design the slip yourself. | Example: You add your logo and larger date text in a custom Order Printer Pro layout. |
| Show schedule details on draft invoices | Paste a short piece of code from Bird's guide into Shopify's draft order invoice template to show the same details. | Example: A draft invoice emailed to a customer includes pickup date and time. |
| Include schedule details on POS receipts | A short piece of code pasted into Shopify's POS and mobile receipt template adds the method, date and time. | Example: A POS receipt email confirms both pickup method and scheduled slot. |
Does Bird put orders at the right Shopify location?
Yes. Turn on Assign order location in Shopify.
Does Bird put orders at the right Shopify location?
Yes. Turn on Assign order location in Shopify.
| You can | What happens | For example |
|---|---|---|
| Route pickup orders to the chosen store | Assigned to the pickup location the customer chose. | Example: A customer picks Main Street, and the order lands on Main Street in Shopify. |
| Route delivery orders by delivery area | Assigned to the location set up for that delivery area. | Example: Orders from North Zone are assigned to your North fulfillment location. |
| Leave shipping orders unassigned by Bird | Shipping orders skip location assignment on purpose. | Example: A shipping order stays without Bird location assignment while pickup orders are assigned. |
| Match locations in both systems first | The location has to exist in both Bird and Shopify. | Example: If Harbor Road exists only in Bird, assignment will not work until it exists in Shopify too. |
Can Bird mark orders fulfilled in Shopify?
Yes. Fulfil once in Bird, or update the status from the Shopify order page.
Can Bird mark orders fulfilled in Shopify?
Yes. Fulfil once in Bird, or update the status from the Shopify order page.
| You can | What happens | For example |
|---|---|---|
| Mark pickup and delivery fulfilled automatically | When your staff mark a pickup or delivery order picked up or delivered in Bird, Shopify marks it fulfilled with all its line items. Shipping orders are left alone. | Example: Staff mark a pickup complete in Bird, and Shopify marks that order fulfilled right away. |
| Advance status from Shopify order pages | The Bird: Order Status action moves an order to ready or dispatched, then complete, in two clicks, and sends the matching customer email if you have it switched on. It works in the Shopify mobile app too. | Example: A manager in Shopify mobile taps Bird: Order Status to mark an order Out for Delivery. |
| Still notify customers when fulfilment happens elsewhere | If your staff fulfil an order from Shopify or another app, Bird can still send its picked up or delivered email. | Example: Warehouse marks fulfilled in Shopify and Bird still sends the delivered email. |
| Prevent duplicate confirmation messages | Shopify's own fulfil button also sends Shopify's shipping confirmation, so use Bird's actions for pickup and delivery orders. | Example: Using Bird status actions avoids sending both Bird and Shopify shipping confirmations for pickup. |
