Houzz Packing Slips

When you connect your Houzz store to ShipStation, ShipStation will create two custom packing slip templates (one 4" x 6", one 8.5" x 11") to be used for your Houzz shipments.

If a store allows custom statuses, this means you define that statuses your orders use in your selling channel. In most cases, if you have custom statuses you'll need to define which ShipStation statuses each custom order status corresponds to.

ShipStation will import the customer's email address with the order data and can send shipment confirmation and delivery emails to that email address (configured in your Store settings).

Houzz Integration Notes

  • ShipStation cannot send emails for Houzz orders. All customer notifications will be handled by Houzz.
