Caution
If you use Profile management, note that order channels are created in the current profile group. If an order channel should belong only to a specific profile group, create it while logged in to a profile in that profile group.

Use clear and descriptive names for each order channel to simplify management.

Select Create shipments automatically if shipments should be created automatically when orders are imported
Select Fulfill orders automatically if you want nShift to send shipment information back to your shop once the order is processed
Select Connect
In Shopify, authorize the nShift Delivery and Shopify connection
Result
After the connection is authorized, the Shopify order channel is created and order synchronization is active.
Next step
After creating the order channel, add at least one delivery option to define how shipments are created for orders from this channel. You must connect a delivery option before you can create shipments. See Create a delivery option.
