How Custom Order Station Works

From order to shipment — one clear workflow

Print → Scan → Design → Produce → Pack → Ship

Everything flows from one source of truth: the updated Amazon Custom / Handmade data, available directly on the ShipStation order page and printed onto the paperwork.


🖨 1. Print the orders

  • Orders are printed from ShipStation with full Amazon Custom / Handmade data included

  • All text, images, colours, fonts, sizes, and options appear on the paperwork

  • No separate Amazon Custom pages to open or print

This paperwork becomes the working document for the entire job.


📄 2. Scan or review the order

  • Designers and staff scan or review the printed order

  • All personalisation details are immediately visible

  • No switching between systems or cross-checking Amazon pages

The order is clear before any work begins.


🎨 3. Design (directly from the ShipStation order)

  • Designers open the ShipStation order page, where the same Amazon Custom / Handmade data is shown

  • Each personalisation field includes one-click copy buttons:

    • Text

    • Images

    • Fonts

    • Colours

  • Designers copy details directly into their design software

  • No retyping, no manual transcription, no guesswork

This removes a major source of human error and makes applying personalisation fast, consistent, and accurate.

Everything needed to personalise the design is available in one place, exactly where the team already works.


🛠 4. Produce

  • Production can tell at a glance what needs to be made

  • Sizes, finishes, materials, and personalisation are clearly shown on the paperwork

  • No interpretation, no assumptions, no back-and-forth

The item is made exactly as ordered.


📦 5. Pack

  • Packers check the finished item directly against the same paperwork

  • Personalisation is verified before shipping

  • Errors are caught before the parcel leaves the building

Confidence replaces last-minute checking.


🚚 6. Ship

  • Correct item, correct personalisation, correct order

  • Faster dispatch

  • Fewer mistakes and returns


One document. One workflow. Fewer mistakes.

By making Amazon Custom and Handmade data usable inside ShipStation, adding copy buttons to eliminate manual errors, and printing that same information onto the order paperwork, design, production, and packing all work from the same reference.

That’s the workflow this platform was built to support — because it’s the one we rely on ourselves every day.
