Partial Delivery Plugin

Introduction

The Partial Delivery plugin for Shopware 6 enables merchants to manage and track partial shipments for individual order items. This is especially useful in scenarios where an order cannot be fulfilled all at once and must be shipped in multiple packages.It ensures that customers receive available items as soon as possible without having to wait for the entire order to be ready. This improves customer satisfaction and keeps logistics transparent and organized.

Key Features

1. Track Partial Shipments

   • Enables tracking of multiple packages per order item.
   • Each package has its own quantity and tracking number.

2. Custom Admin Tab for Shipments

   • Adds a new “Shipment” tab in the Order Detail view.
   • View and manage all partial deliveries directly in the admin panel.
3. Multiple Entries per Line Item
   • Supports recording several shipments for the same item.
   • Useful for cases like backorders or separate warehouse fulfillment.

Compatibility

• ✅ Shopware 6.6.x
• ✅ Shopware 6.7.x

Plugin Configuration

The Partial Delivery plugin does not require any specific configuration after installation. Once activated, it automatically adds a "Shipment" tab in the Order Detail view in the Shopware Admin panel.

If the tab does not appear immediately after installation, run the following commands in your Shopware terminal:

These commands will rebuild the admin interface to ensure the shipment tab is visible.

How It Works

1. Customer Places an Order
When a customer places an order, the full quantity of each product is recorded in the order under the Quantity column.

2. Admin Creates a Shipment
From the order’s Shipments tab, the admin can manually create a shipment by clicking the Create Shipment button.

3. Partial Shipment Entry
Instead of shipping the full quantity, the admin can enter a partial quantity to ship (e.g., only 5 out of 20 units).

Each partial shipment can include:

• Quantity
• A custom box label (e.g., “package 1”)

• Tracking number

  

4. Shipment Details Are Tracked Each shipment is tracked under Shipment Details, showing:

• Box name
• Shipped quantity
• Tracking info

This allows multiple packages to be associated with a single order.

5. Order Status and Fulfillment Management

• The Shipped column updates based on the total quantity sent.
• Any remaining quantity stays unshipped, allowing future partial shipments.
• Full visibility is maintained of what has been shipped vs. what is pending.

Best Practices

• Consistent Labeling: Use consistent naming for box labels (e.g., "Package 1", "Box A") to easily identify shipments.
• Track Everything: Always enter tracking numbers for each shipment to maintain full shipment history.
• Data Cleanup: Periodically review old shipment records to ensure clarity and accuracy in your order management.

• Test Before Use: Try the partial delivery flow in a staging environment to confirm expected behavior before using it on live orders.
