Configuring ShipStation Order Statuses
ShipStation w/ACH Pending Review status
Instructions for configuring when ShipStation considers an order from Zoey to be Awaiting Shipment
Before reading on take a look at Order Flow. It is important to understand the flow of orders when considering shipping as it exists in that flow.
Overview
ShipStation looks to the Zoey Order Status to know whether an order is ready to ship.
After setting up our store in ShipStation Setting Up ShipStation you can decide what Zoey statuses should indicate that an order is Awaiting Shipment.
The status of an order can be different depending on the payment method. Unpaid, unshipped Orders are created as Pending
. Orders paid at checkout using credit card capture or Stripe ACH will be set to Processing
. You can configure which Order Status is applied by each payment method in Settings > Payment Methods. It is important that you know which status is applied to your orders and when so we can configure ShipStation to create the shipment.

Now that you know which status in Zoey is applied and when, we can tell ShipStation at which step to set the order as Awaiting Shipping.
