How do I specify item locations for online sales in Shopify?

Shopify Discussion

We have two locations, a store and a warehouse. We have items stored at both locations that are being sold online. We only offer local pickup and ship from the store location. We want to specify item location to help our employees find items, and we’ve tried adding tags or info to the SKU but this is cumbersome,

We recently looked into the “locations” feature, but when we enabled it to test it out, it messed up the local pickup and shipping options.

We want to be able to sell online items from both locations (as stock is stored in both locations) BUT only offer pickup and shipping from one, the store location. All items are fulfilled in the end from the store. We go to the warehouse to pick items then bring everything to the store to sell via local pickup or shipping.

Is it possible to make this distinction on Shopify (we have the Basic Shopify plan) and if so how is it done?

Hi, yes this is actually pretty difficult to achieve in Shopify. But, if you are using fixed rates for shipping, our app ShipMagic should be able to fix this problem for you.

But please be mindful that this only works if you offer fixed rate shipping.
