"RuffRuff 予約販売" helps reduce the lost sales opportunities that occur during out-of-stock periods, before a new product launch, or while waiting for restocking.
It makes it remarkably easy to set up pre-orders on your own Shopify store, letting you register an unlimited number of pre-order products and accept an unlimited number of pre-orders. It can also restrict customers from ordering pre-order and regular products together, and can send restock notifications when the arrival date is undetermined.
It also has many unique features not found in other pre-order apps, such as a "deferred payment" feature that lets you collect payment before the product ships.
What Is Shopify Order Printer?
Shopify Order Printer is a completely free app provided by Shopify that lets you easily print the documents needed for shipping on Shopify, such as statements, receipts, invoices, and picking lists.
You can also customize document templates by editing the HTML (Liquid file).
By customizing templates, you can insert your company logo, change the color of text and lines, and create your own store-specific documents generated based on an order.
Creating your own store-specific documents also helps reinforce your brand impression with customers.
The blog article below introduces how to use Shopify Order Printer to create a picking list, and how to display shelf numbers on a picking list. Please use it as a reference.
