What you can do
Everything you need to analyze Shopify fulfillment
Mixtable's reporting worksheets turn fulfillment events from your Shopify store into metrics you can trend, split, and put beside your sales numbers.
Volume that reconciles
Fulfillment counts and fulfilled quantities, store-wide or per product and variant, so throughput is a number, not a feeling.
Split by how you fulfill
Filter by fulfillment location, fulfillment service, or the tracking carrier recorded on the shipment.
A monthly starting point
The Order Fulfillment template lays out fulfilled order counts across the last twelve months in one step.
A ready-made speed report
Order fulfillment & delivery speed loads recent orders, starting from the last 7 days, with fulfillment count, hours to fulfill, hours to deliver, return requests, open returns, and return close time on every row.
Formulas on top
Convert hours to days, set SLA thresholds, and flag months that miss them, like any spreadsheet.
The fulfillment metrics you can put in a worksheet
Reporting worksheets cover supported metric and filter combinations. These are the core metrics for fulfillment analysis.
- Hours to first fulfillment
- Hours to delivery
- Fulfillment count
- Fulfilled quantity
- Fulfilled orders by month
- Fulfillment location filter
- Fulfillment service filter
- Tracking carrier filter
- Fulfillment status filter

- Targets are your column
- Beating the promise
The two numbers your customers actually feel
Customers experience two waits: order to shipment, and shipment to doorstep. Mixtable measures both, as average hours to first fulfillment and average hours to delivery, so promises like "ships in 24 hours" get checked against reality.

- Store pickup lags

Find out where the hours go
A slow average hides a specific cause: one warehouse, one fulfillment app, one carrier. Filters for fulfillment location, fulfillment service, and tracking company compute the same metrics per operator, so the slow link stands out.

- Per fulfillment service, including 3PL apps
- Per tracking carrier recorded on the shipment

Fulfillment volume, month by month
Speed only matters if volume holds. The Order Fulfillment template counts fulfilled orders across the last twelve months, and fulfillment counts and quantities work over any range, so peaks, dips, and capacity limits are visible before they hurt.

- Per-product throughput
- Orders one sheet away
From analytics to the pick list
Fulfillment counts and quantities work per product and variant, so you can see what actually moves through the warehouse. And because Mixtable is a spreadsheet for your whole store, the unfulfilled orders themselves are one worksheet away.

- Open unfulfilled orders in a regular worksheet to work the queue

Questions
Shopify fulfillment analytics questions
How do I measure how fast my Shopify store ships?
Install the Mixtable Analytics Spreadsheet from the Shopify App Store and add the average hours to first fulfillment metric. It computes the time from order to first fulfillment event across your orders, for any date range, live from your store.
Can I measure delivery time, not just fulfillment time?
Yes. Average hours to delivery measures order to delivery, where Shopify has delivery events recorded, so you see the wait your customer actually experienced.
Can I compare my warehouse against my 3PL?
Yes. The fulfillment location and fulfillment service filters compute the same metrics per operator, so in-house, 3PL, and store fulfillment can be compared over the same period.
Can I see performance per shipping carrier?
Yes. The tracking company filter groups fulfillment metrics by the carrier recorded on the shipment, so you can see which carriers deliver fastest for your routes.
Can I track fulfilled volume month by month?
Yes. The Order Fulfillment template lays out fulfilled order counts for the twelve months up to when you create it, and the current month keeps filling in as orders ship.
Can I see which products dominate my warehouse throughput?
Yes. Fulfillment counts and fulfilled quantities are available per product and variant, so pick-and-pack load per item is a sortable column.
Where does the data come from?
From the fulfillment events on your own Shopify orders, synced by Mixtable Analytics. There is nothing to integrate beyond installing the app.
Can I also work the unfulfilled orders queue in Mixtable?
Yes, in a regular orders worksheet. Analytics measures the process; order worksheets show the actual open orders, in the same spreadsheet.
