Manually Edit or Add Supertime Attributes on New Orders, Existing Orders or Draft Orders
Supertime is a cart-based app, we help you collect a date and time in the cart before checkout using cart attributes. If you have orders that you did not collect this information in the cart from your customer or you would like to modify this information that was collected for the order, below are instructions on how to make these updates.
Update Attributes on existing orders with Supertime data
You can edit these details under "Additional Details" of your specific order. Be sure to use the same time and date formats as your other orders.
Steps:
- Open the order from the Orders page in your Shopify admin.
- Click on Edit under the Additional Details.
- Provide the desired value for this field. Be sure the adhere to these formats for compatibility:
- Supertime Delivery Method: the method used here should be the exact spelling of the method of one that you've created.
- Supertime Delivery Date: it should follow the yyyy-mm-dd date format of a similar date from the duplication
- Supertime Timeslot: it should follow a 24h format, with a space between the hyphen - "hh:mm - hh:mm"
Once you have edited the value to what you desire. Hit Save:
- Repeat for all of your desired Supertime fields.
For orders without Supertime attributes
Are you looking to add Supertime data on orders that do not have Supertime information? (e.g. this is a new draft order?)
Here are recommended approaches below.
For Creating New or Draft Orders to include Supertime Attributes
You can enter Supertime details manually into Draft Orders. Essentially, you would be adding the information that's found in the Additional Details section (e.g. order/cart attributes)
The general approach (see steps below) would be to duplicate an existing order that contains Supertime attributes in it into a Draft Order and you'll be able to start with an order that has Supertime attributes under Additional Details.
Alternatively, here is a Shopify app that you can use for adding new attributes to existing orders, or to create draft orders with Supertime attributes. This app also allows you to save Supertime attribute names as presets for future use.
Steps:
- Look for an order in your system that contains Supertime information (e.g. you see Supertime data under the "Additional Details" section of the order).
- If this does not exist, either perform a test order where you collect Supertime information for this purpose and use that for the below, or create your order using the Draft Orders method without Supertime information and review the instructions for "For adding Supertime attributes to orders without Supertime attributes" instead.
- Duplicate this order by following these steps:
- Open the order (or the draft order) from the Orders page in your Shopify admin.
In the order (or draft order) details page, click Duplicate.
A draft order is created with the same line items and customer information as the original order.
- Save it as a draft
- Remove any product, customer, address information from the duplicated order. And add in the details required for this order.
Add the desired method, date and time slot information into the Additional Details section (e.g. "Supertime Delivery Method", "Supertime Delivery Date", "Supertime Timeslot").
- Be sure the adhere to these formats for compatibility:
- Supertime Delivery Method: the method used here should be the exact spelling of the method of one that you've created.
- Supertime Delivery Date: it should follow the yyyy-mm-dd date format of a similar date from the duplication
- Supertime Timeslot: it should follow a 24h format, with a space between the hyphen - "hh:mm - hh:mm"
- Supertime Timezone: this can be left as-is (it is used for timezone review and debugging purposes)
- Similarly, if you use order tags, add in the Tags for the delivery method, timeslot and date as needed, with the appropriate formats.
- Turn this Draft Order into an order by selecting a payment option when ready (e.g. When you accept payment for your draft order, an order is created for it on the Orders page.)
For adding Supertime attributes to an Existing Order
The general approach would be to add these attributes manually to your order. Be sure to use the exactly same time and date formats as your other orders, as well as the exact and correct attribute names (e.g. Supertime Delivery Date).
Here is a Shopify app that you can use for adding attributes to draft or existing orders. This app also allows you to save attribute names as presets for future use.
General Instructions:
- Provide the desired the name field(s) for the Supertime information you want to input (e.g. "Supertime Delivery Method", "Supertime Delivery Date", "Supertime Timeslot").
- Provide the desired value for entered field(s). Be sure the adhere to these formats for compatibility:
- Supertime Delivery Method: the method used here should be the exact spelling of the method of one that you've created.
- Supertime Delivery Date: it should follow the yyyy-mm-dd date format of a similar date from the duplication
- Supertime Timeslot: it should follow a 24h format, with a space between the hyphen - "hh:mm - hh:mm"
For other scenarios where you may want to edit the order itself
Please review this link on the Shopify Help Centre for more on how to edit an order. Note that if you are using the Shopify Local Pickup feature, then orders are not editable. You will need to use the Draft Orders feature to create a new pickup order with the same details. You may want to recreate an order using the Draft Order feature to make any changes where there are changes to the shipping method or rates (here is a link to the Shopify Help Center).
