Difference between Fulfilled and Shipped orders?

Difference between Fulfilled and Shipped orders?

In the new order reporting, there are metrics called "Fulfilled orders" and "Shipped orders".

 

In the help documentation these are defined as:

Fulfilled orders = The number of orders fulfilled during the selected time period.

Shipped orders = The number of orders that were shipped during the selected time period.

 

However, the API doesn't differentiate between fulfilled and shipped. Based on the documentation here (https://shopify.dev/api/admin/rest/reference/orders/order), orders with fulfillment_status=fulfilled are also shipped.

"shipped: Show orders that have been shipped. Returns orders with fulfillment_status of fulfilled."

 

Can you clarify what is the difference between these metrics in the report?
