Split bundle SKU into individual SKUs/quantities before fulfillment?

[keithpickering]

Hi! We have a Shopify store with orders fulfilled by ShipStation. Recently we have introduced Bundles which has complicated things.

Currently we're using an app that applies an automatic discount when a certain combination of products/quantities exists in the cart. This works okay, but makes it so an additional coupon code can't be used with the order.

We would like a solution that allows the bundles to be stored as their own master SKUs, then when they are purchased, the individual SKUs and quantities that make up that bundle should be processed with ShipStation.

ShipStation doesn't support this by default, so is there some kind of middleware or a Shopify app that could handle this processing for us?

I am also looking for this feature. I want to sell a bundle on Shopify, then submit an MCF order to Amazon Fulfillment that includes each of the products in the Shopify Bundle

Did you ever find an app that has this functionality? I 'm also looking for something like this. Mods, please help! 

-Each bundle will have its own product page and shopify product listing. 

-Each bundle has fixed items - customers cannot mix and match or swap products to the bundle. 

-Once the order is paid, on Shopify the order will contain 1 item (the bundle), but in fulfillment, 3 items will need to go in each order. Is there an app that can edit the order to add the 3 products whenever a bundle is paid for?

Still no solution, unfortunately.

Treating bundles as a single product is beneficial for a number of reasons (namely ease of use + applying coupon codes in addition to the bundle discount), but it makes it impossible to fulfill the bundled items separately. 

All the bundle apps I've seen for Shopify seem to expect our products to be physically bundled, which would make this a non-issue...but unfortunately for us the "bundle" is just a price discount; the items still need to be shipped from different places.

Hello to all here. I was wondering did any of you ever find a solution? I have a client with the exact same issue now. I was contemplating building an app for this client to sit between the store and the fulfillment partner that would translate the bundle SKU's into the individual SKU's. Would anybody here be willing to use this if it was built? What are you currently doing to resolve this issue?

Bundle builder on shopify should help. I have not tried individual SKU option, but I know it's available as part of the app feature.

Goodluck

Hi

We already have this in our bundling app as we split the order line into the individual component products when a bundled products is purchased.

Hi Keith,

We recently launched Simple Bundles that allows your bundles to be stored as their own SKUs. So when a customer purchases a bundle, the individual SKUs and quantities can been seen on your Shopify admin and sent to ShipStation. 

You can install it here: https://apps.shopify.com/simple-bundles
Here's a video if you just want to see how it works: https://youtu.be/TFgWHBlPUQs

Try it out if you're interested and let me know if you have any questions! Would love to hear any feedback so we can continue to make improvements and add features. Hope this helps!

Hello kenkinneen, we are a fulfillment center and looking for this solution for our Shopify merchants. If you built the app let us know, we need this asap

Hi Lichen,

Is ShipStation the only way to fulfill the bundles? Looking for an app that brings in the bundle, splits it up by the skus and allows us to fulfill each item directly in Shopify. Thank you for your time and help!

Hi Kelly, so sorry for the late reply! Simple Bundles was actually built to work directly with Shopify 🙂 We just support other 3rd party software as well and ShipStation is a popular one. Let me know if I can help further. You can also email me directly at lichen@freshlycommerce.com
