How AST PRO Helps Manage Partial Shipments in WooCommerce

For many WooCommerce stores, especially those with large inventories or multiple warehouses, not every order can be shipped all at once. Managing partial shipments can quickly become complicated — multiple tracking numbers, multiple packages, and keeping customers informed throughout the process. That’s where Advanced Shipment Tracking PRO (AST PRO) simplifies everything.

What Are Partial Shipments?

Partial shipments occur when a single order is divided into multiple packages shipped at different times. This could happen if:

Some products are backordered or out of stock.
Products are shipped from different fulfillment centers.
Certain items require special handling or shipping methods.

While partial shipments are common, handling them manually can be messy without the right tools.

The Challenge of Managing Partial Shipments

Without an automated solution, partial shipments can lead to:

Confused customers who don’t receive complete tracking details.
Manual tracking updates for each package.
Missed communication and support tickets.

That’s why AST PRO’s multi-tracking and partial shipment management is a game changer for WooCommerce stores.

How AST PRO Helps Manage Partial Shipments

1. Add Multiple Tracking Numbers per Order

With AST PRO, you can easily add multiple tracking numbers to a single order. Each tracking number is linked to its specific shipment and carrier, so customers can track every package independently.

2. Notify Customers Automatically

AST PRO automatically sends email notifications when each part of the order is shipped. Customers know exactly which items have shipped and which are pending.

3. Track All Shipments in One Place

Customers can view all tracking details in the order tracking widget on the My Account page, keeping everything organized and transparent.

4. Compatible with TrackShip for WooCommerce

When combined with TrackShip, you get real-time shipment tracking updates (In Transit, Out for Delivery, Delivered) for each tracking number — fully automated.

5. CSV Import Support

If you fulfill orders in bulk, AST PRO’s CSV import tool supports multiple tracking numbers per order, simplifying the process for high-volume stores.

Benefits for Store Owners

Simplify order management with clear shipment tracking.
Reduce customer inquiries about incomplete deliveries.
Improve post-purchase experience with transparent communication.
Scale fulfillment operations efficiently.

Conclusion

Partial shipments don’t have to mean confusion. With AST PRO, WooCommerce stores can handle split orders easily, keeping customers informed and improving operational efficiency.
