Primary Sorting
-
Sort By Store SKU Packages: Orders are grouped by product variant. Store SKUs with more packages are grouped and prioritized.
Secondary Sorting: After primary sorting, orders in the same store SKU group are further sorted by:
-
By SKU Quantity: Sort by the total quantities of the store SKUs in each package. If the number of store SKU quantities is the same, sort by order creation time.
-
By SKU Types: Sort by the number of distinct store SKUs in each package. If the number of store SKU types is the same, sort by order creation time.
💡 Example (By Descending Order)
- Primary Sorting: If the order list contains 10 packages, 7 with variant A-SKU and 3 with variant B-SKU, the system will place all 7 A-SKU packages before the 3 B-SKU packages.
- Secondary Sorting: Then the system will sort the orders within each group in ascending order based on the product quantity and product types.
💡 Recommended Use Cases
For users who have not created Merchant SKUs in BigSeller, we recommend using Sort by Store SKU Package. This method makes picking and printing more efficient.
Tips: Before sorting orders, you can first filter orders by package type — Single Item (1 qty) and Single Item (multiple qty).

Groups identical Store SKUs together → staff can handle the same SKU in bulk instead of switching between different SKUs.
-
Sorts by SKU quantity within the same Store SKU → larger orders come first, which helps prioritize bulk picking and reduces repeated trips to the same shelf.
-
Streamlines printing and packing → orders with the same items are printed and packed together.
