See every featureShopify has no per-product handling time field, so made-to-order stores end up with one shipping policy covering the whole catalogue. DispatchFlex fixes that. Write a handling time on any product, like "Made to order, ships in 2 weeks", or set lead times in days and let it compute real dispatch dates from your calendar and backlog.
Set shipping days, cutoffs, holidays and product lead times. ShipNoDrama calculates each order's ship date for made-to-order products, preorders and restricted ship days. Manage daily capacity, mixed carts and split fulfillment. Automatically hold orders until their ship date, then release them. Show ship dates, countdowns and holiday deadlines on product and order pages. Trigger Shopify Flow when dates change.
