Tracking and fulfilling Member Shop sales

Tobias Gundry

Updated

When a member buys something from your Member Shop, the sale is recorded and waits on the Sales tab until someone hands the item over. This article covers reading that list, closing an order once it has been collected, and deciding whether each sale should also create a task for your staff.

Viewing your sales

Go to Products > Shop and open the Sales tab. It lists every paid Member Shop sale, newest first.

  • Sale — a short reference for the order, with the date and time of purchase in your studio's timezone. The same reference heads the sale itself, so it is what to quote when discussing an order with a colleague.
  • Customer — the member who bought the item.
  • Product — the item, with the quantity and the line total beneath it.
  • Pickup — the location the member chose to collect from.
  • StatusPending pickup while the order is outstanding, or Picked up once it has been handed over.

Only paid sales reach this list. If a member says they ordered something and it is not here, their payment did not complete, and there is no order for you to fulfil. Counter sales you take with Shop Sale do appear here, and they start as Pending pickup like any other order.

Opening a sale

Select View on a row to open the order. The heading repeats the short reference, followed by the purchase date and time and where the sale came from: Mobile, Landing page or Staff dashboard.

The item table shows the product title, description, SKU, quantity, unit price and total as they were recorded at the moment of sale. Editing the product later does not change what this order says was sold, so an old sale still shows the price the member actually paid.

The Pickup panel beside it holds the customer's name, which links through to their profile, the pickup location, the total paid, and whether the order has been collected.

Marking an order as picked up

When you hand the order over, select Mark Picked Up in the Pickup panel. Clovo records the date and time and the staff member who was signed in, the status changes to Picked up on both the sale and the Sales tab, and the button leaves the panel.

Clovo has no way to undo this from the sale, so mark the order once the member actually has it rather than while you are getting it ready.

Members are told their order is ready

As soon as payment succeeds, the member receives a push notification and an email headed Your order is ready, naming the product and the pickup location, with their receipt attached. Studio admins receive a Shop purchase notification at the same time, listing the product, quantity, pickup location, amount and a link to the Stripe receipt.

Because the member is told straight away, they can arrive before anyone has looked at the Sales tab. If your shop sells items that have to be fetched from storage, it helps to check pending orders at the start of a shift rather than only when someone asks.

Creating a task for every sale

If you would rather work through pickups on the tasks board than watch the Sales tab, Clovo can raise a task for each order. Go to Products > Shop, open the Shop Settings tab, switch Automatically create tasks on under Automations, then select Save Settings.

The Automations block in Shop Settings, with the Automatically create tasks switch being turned on

Each sale paid from then on creates a task called Fulfill member shop sale, describing the product, quantity, pickup location, sale ID and time of purchase. The buyer is set as the task's related user and the pickup location as its location, so the card carries both. Sales that were paid before you saved the setting are not given tasks.

The task arrives in the UNASSIGNED column, and an unassigned task cannot be moved anywhere. Open the card, choose a person under Assignee and save it; the card then gains its drag handle and its Move to buttons.

Tasks sit on top of the Sales tab rather than replacing it. Moving the task to Done does not close the order — the sale stays Pending pickup until someone selects Mark Picked Up — so keep doing both, or leave the setting off and work from the Sales tab alone.

Finding one member's orders

When a member asks about a purchase of their own, open their profile and select the Sales tab. It lists their paid Member Shop orders with the date and time, the product and quantity, the pickup location and the same status badge, and View opens the full sale.

Stock and sales

Stock at the chosen pickup location drops as soon as payment succeeds. The reduction appears in the product's stock history for that location with the reason Sale and a View Sale button that opens the order behind it.

If an order is cancelled or returned, put the stock back by adjusting the quantity on the product's detail page. See Managing stock and inventory in the Member Shop for how adjustments work.
