Unshipped Orders Report
The Unshipped Orders Report lists any invoices marked with a status of Shipping. When a new order is processed and a shipping option is specified, the status on the new invoice is automatically set Shipping. This report can be used by a fulfillment department to identify all orders which need to be shipped as well as to assign a ship date and tracking number to these orders.
To view this report, click the Reports menu, scroll down to the "Uncompleted Store Orders" section near the bottom, and click Unshipped Orders.
