š Before Starting
Please think about the following things when adding a shipping integration with Sparqle: Validate different scenarios you may encounter in daily operations. Do you allow for in-store pickups?

š« Testing & Go-Live
Make sure to always provide some test orders, cancel orders and add orders for local delivery, pick up in-store and delivery in other postal code areas in order to validate the integration and confirm the configuration. Lastly, double check your Shopify integration by answering these questions:
[ ] Question 1: Are orders created in Sparqle? - ask to verify
[ ] Question 2: Confirm if only local delivery orders in the right postal code area are added - ask to verify
[ ] Question 3: Confirm if a cancelled order is actually removed from the Sparqle order management system - ask Sparqle to confirm
[ ] Question 4: Confirm if store managers are informed about the pickup times and understand the process for making the packages ready for our riders.
