Depressing: Cannot make {{ line_item.fulfillment.tracking_number}} work with Packing Slip Template

Technical Q&A
1

Sorry to post something about {{ line_item.fulfillment.tracking_number}} but I cannot make it work at all.

Objective: I want to include the Tracking Number of my orders into the standard Shopify Packing Slip Template that is define in Settings

I have used the 3 methods below, but none of them return any value.

Method 1:

Tracking number: {{ fulfillment.tracking_number }}

Result: Only “Tracking number” is displayed

Method 2: (Please note that I have 1 tracking number for all the item in an order,)

{% for line_item in line_items %}
Tracking number : {{line_item.fulfillment.tracking_number}}
{% endfor %}

Result: Nothing is displayed.The loop is not even executed once as “Tracking number” is not displayed

Method 3:

{% for fulfillment in fulfillments %}
Tracking number: {{ fulfillment.tracking_number }}
{% endfor %}

Result: Nothing is displayed. The loop is not even executed once as “Tracking number” is not displayed

I am sure there is a tracking number for the order that I test (See print screen below). In addition I use an app to Extract my orders into Excel, and the pp return the tracking number “2015” as expected.

Help please. I am banging my head against the wall.

I have check in many other post and look at Shopify documentation (https://shopify.dev/docs/themes/liquid/reference/objects/fulfillment) but can not solve the issue.

Many thanks,

L.

Hi LaurentH,

did you solved it? I think that object is not availabile (anymore?) in Order Printer templates.

Thanks.

Has anyone solved this problem yet?
It’s 2023 and it looks like still doesn’t support Tracking Number in Packing Slip.

Actually Tracking Number can be used in Order Printer App template.

But in Order Printer, I don’t know how to get the quantity of each fulfillment.

You can use Shopify Flow to add the tracking number as an order metafield once the order is fulfilled. Then use the metafield on the packing slip.

Is there anyway you could provide step-by-step on how to do this? Thank you!
