Store Importer for Shopify allows you to migrate your orders from WooCommerce to Shopify. Although there aren't many options, there are important things to keep in mind.

Orders

To import your orders from WooCommerce to Shopify, check the box as pointed out in the image below:

Notifications

Your customers won't receive any notifications for migrated orders. However, you will! Luckily, it's easy to switch off. Go to your Shopify admin and click the following links:

1. Click 'Settings' in your Shopify Admin (bottom left)

2. Click 'Notifications in the left menu

3. Click 'Staff notifications'

4. For each recipient, click the three dots and click 'Turn off'

Once your migration is complete, you can follow the same steps and use step 4 to 'Turn on' the notifications again.

Order notes

Sometimes you have import information in your WooCommerce order notes and you want to migrate this information as well. Think about staff comments and tracking information.

Store Importer allows you to migrate your WooCommerce order notes to Shopify, but it's important to know that this will slow down the process a lot! If you still need your order notes after reading this warning, you can select the option as pointed out below:

Your order notes will be downloaded and stored in a metafield in Shopify. This metafield with your order notes will be visible on the order detail page in Shopify.
