##### Why after creating a label has ShipStation only updated the order with tracking information but not marked it as fulfilled?
We strive to be there for wherever you sell and however you ship, so we’re always working towards having every selling channel solution ever. For the full list of our partners, check out this page.
##### Why is my Shopify order not importing into ShipStation?
This occurs when we create a fulfillment update but we receive an error from Shopify stating that the fulfillment could not be created for one of the following reasons:
- The order is already fulfilled.
- One or more Shopify products in the order are set to use a fulfillment service.
- Your store is using Shopify’s inventory management features, but the Ship From Location used to create the shipping label was not linked to the correct Shopify inventory source, or the product is out of stock. See Shopify Inventory for more information.
We recommend seeing if you can update the order directly in Shopify as we will not be able to update the order as fulfilled.
