ShipShark
Onboarding

Step 4: Add data in Shopify

This is the MOST IMPORTANT step of all in the onboarding guide.

First: NEVER change your SKU while you have stock. If you need to change your SKU, please contact us.

  1. Create a Shopify location for ShipShark

It is important that you create a new location in Shopify named exactly Shipshark - Haraldsvej. Inventory and fulfillments must be tied to this location so our warehouse can sync correctly with your shop.

  • In Shopify admin, go to SettingsLocations
  • Click Add location
  • Enter the name Shipshark - Haraldsvej (use this exact spelling)
  • Save the location

2. Add weight to your products

  • Click "Products" in Shopify

  • Select the product you want to add/change weight on

  • Find the "weight" field and fill in correctly (if in doubt, ask your supplier)

3. Add SKU to your products (each product variant must have its OWN SKU)

  • Click "Products" in Shopify

  • Select the product you want to add SKU to

  • Find the "SKU" field and fill in a series of numbers and letters + enable "Track Quantity"

    • If your product is a White, Dress in Size Medium, then make e.g. SKU (H-DRESS-M)

    • You can't make a "wrong" SKU. The MOST IMPORTANT thing is that EVERY product variant has its own unique SKU

4. Add Barcode to your products (each product variant must have its OWN Barcode)

  • Click "Products" in Shopify

  • Select the product you want to add Barcode to

  • Find the "Barcode" field and fill with 13 random numbers

    • Barcode example: 3567321647830

    • You can't make a "wrong" barcode as long as it is 13 random numbers and unique to each product variant

  • Requirement: It is a requirement that the products you deliver to us have barcodes applied (matching the barcode field in Shopify). Without a barcode on the product, we cannot scan your products. That increases the risk of errors and has a major impact on how efficiently we can work in the pick and pack process.

  • If you need to create or print barcodes yourself, you can do so here.
