I was actually thinking of something like this myself. Have a threshold for free delivery and see if I had any complaints/feedback if the odd orders had items from both locations but didn’t meet the threshold, and deal with them as they happen.
Appreciate the reply though, Ill reply again here if I somehow find a solution or workaround.
Hey Lael, I’m aware it’s been some time since your original post, but just leaving this answer here in case your or someone else finds it valuable. As JohnHa mentioned, you’ll need another app (like Starshipit or others) to create the rules you need. It’s quite simple - here’s a guide on rules with Starshipit.
I return from with good news (kind of) from the Shopify admin battleground.
I have a kind of workaround that might help some people.
Using Shopify flow and another app called flowmail.
You are able to create a flow - Order created > Check if: line items vendor is equal to “your supplier name” > Do This: Send transactional email (by specific email).
Have to set up a flow per Vendor.
If you would like to know the specific variables I used to create the email that then emails the supplier with only their products, qtys, and customer delivery address etc, ket me know and I will send across happily,
The Flowmail team are fantastic too, cant recommend them enough.
Edit: This is with only one fulfilment location set up, so Shopify doesn’t treat it as 2 orders and only calculates one weight for shipping price calculation.
