The shipping calendar

Updated 23 July 2026

Shipping calendar in the Flare navigation is your operational month view: every scheduled order, on the day it matters, with capacity and fulfilment progress at a glance.

Available on the Organised plan and above.

Three views

Switch tabs to organise the month by:

• Ship date — what leaves the warehouse each day (the default when ship dates are on).
• Delivery date — what arrives with customers each day.
• Pickup date — what gets collected each day.

What each day shows

• Order count for the day — and, if you use order limits, count / limit with Near capacity (80%+) and At capacity labels.
• Fulfilment progress — X/Y fulfilled fills up as you fulfil; fully done days show All fulfilled.
• Channel breakdown — with per-channel limits, each channel's usage is listed.

The three status cards

Across the top:

• To ship today (or deliver/pickup, per tab) — today's outstanding count.
• Overdue — past-dated orders still unfulfilled. This is the list to clear every morning.
• Missing dates — unfulfilled orders with no date. Usually rule-hidden pickers (fine) or draft/imported orders that need a date (add one).

Working from the calendar

Click any day for View all orders / View unfulfilled / View fulfilled — each opens Shopify's order list pre-filtered to exactly those orders (it's the date tags doing the filtering), where you fulfil, print, and edit as normal. The calendar refreshes itself every few minutes; the "Updated N min ago" stamp tells you how fresh it is.

Tips

• If the Ship date tab warns that ship dates are off, enable ship-date tagging in Shipping settings — dispatch planning is the calendar's best view.
• Bulk-move a day (courier failure, weather): select the orders in Shopify's list and use Bulk Reschedule Date — see changing dates.
