Recommended: Mark the location or fulfillment service as Dropship in SKULabs
SKULabs can skip line items that Shopify assigns to a dropship location or fulfillment service, so your team never sees them on orders.
Go to Settings > Stores and open your Shopify store.
Find the Dropship Locations/Suppliers settings panel.
Under 3rd-Party Fulfillment Services, choose Dropship for each service that ships items for you. Services are set to Dropship by default.
Under Fulfillment Locations, choose Dropship for any Shopify location that a supplier ships from. Locations are set to Local by default.
Optional: in Treat these fulfillment location names as dropship, enter location names one per line (not case-sensitive). Any line item fulfilled from a location with a matching name is treated as dropship on import, even if that location is set to Local above.
Save the store settings.
The change applies to orders imported after you save.
Alternative: Assign items to a custom fulfillment service in Shopify
If your supplier doesn't have its own Shopify location or app, you can create a custom fulfillment service in Shopify and assign the dropshipped products to it. See Shopify's guide: Custom fulfillment services.
Then make sure that service is set to Dropship under 3rd-Party Fulfillment Services in SKULabs (steps above).
Alternative: Flag items as virtual / digital
You can also uncheck This is a physical product on the product in Shopify. SKULabs skips items that don't require shipping when importing new orders. See Shopify's guide: Digital and service products.
How to hide empty orders from appearing in SKULabs
See our guide for hiding empty, fully dropshipped, or fully digital orders.
Inventory caveat
SKULabs does not adjust inventory for dropshipped or digital items it skips. Please reach out if you need help setting up deductions for dropshipped or digital items.
