Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureWhen a customer buys both pre-order items and in-stock items in one Shopify order, everything has to wait - in-stock items can't ship until the pre-order is ready, and customers wonder where their order is. Nohold automatically splits mixed-cart orders into two separate Brightpearl Sales Orders the moment they're placed. In-stock items ship immediately. Pre-orders ship when ready. No manual work per order.
SweetRelease gives you control over when preorders ship. When a customer preorders, the app automatically holds that order at a gated location that can't fulfill, so it can't ship early. Held orders appear in a queue where your team can set priority and release them to your live warehouse individually or in bulk.
