# How to Fulfill 4PL Orders in the SPL TikTok Shop App

# 4PL Order Fulfillment – SPL TikTok Shop App
The **4PL (Fourth-Party Logistics) Fulfillment** feature in the SPL TikTok Shop app allows merchants to ship TikTok orders directly using TikTok-supported logistics partners. 
TikTok acts as the logistics integrator, sitting between you and the physical courier.
* **Platform Control:** TikTok selects the carrier for each order based on weight, dimensions, and the buyer's location.
* **Billing:** Shipping fees are deducted directly from your seller settlement (the money you earn from the sale), often at discounted platform rates.
* **Tracking:** Tracking numbers are generated automatically. You do not need to manually upload tracking IDs; they sync the moment you print the label.
## Where to Find 4PL Orders
* Open the **SPL TikTok Shop App** in your Shopify Admin.
* Navigate to the **Orders** section.
* You will see multiple tabs such as:
* **All**
* **Unfulfilled**
* **Awaiting Collection**
* **In Transit**
* **Delivered**
* **Cancelled**

When an order is ready for logistics processing, you will see the **Print Shipping Labels** button and shipment actions enabled.

## How to Fulfill a 4PL Order
### Step 1: Open the Fulfillment Window
* In the **Orders** list, click the **Ship / Fulfill** action icon for the desired order.
* A popup window titled **Ship Package (4PL)** will appear.

### Step 2: Choose Handover Method
Under **Fulfillment Details**, select how the package will be handed over to the logistics provider:
* **Drop Off** – You will personally drop the package at the courier or TikTok partner location.
* **Pickup** – The courier will collect the package from your address.
Choose the option that matches your shipping workflow.

### Step 3: Ship the Package
* After selecting the package and handover method, click **Ship Package**.
* The system will send fulfillment data to TikTok and generate shipment confirmation.

* You can monitor progress directly from the SPL Orders dashboard.

## Important Notes
* Ensure your **warehouse and pickup address** are correctly configured in TikTok Seller Center.
* Always **print and attach the shipping label** before handing over the package.
* If the **Ship Package** button is disabled, verify:
* Order is paid.
* Package status is `TO_FULFILL`.
* Logistics service is available for the region.

## When to Use 4PL Fulfillment
Use 4PL when:
* You want TikTok partner carriers to manage shipping.
* You need automatic tracking synchronization.
* You are operating in supported TikTok Shop regions.

By following these steps, merchants can efficiently process TikTok orders using the SPL TikTok Shop app’s **4PL Fulfillment** system with minimal manual effort and accurate tracking synchronization.


## Alternative Method: Fulfill 4PL Orders Directly from Shopify Admin
You can also fulfill 4PL TikTok orders directly inside your **Shopify Admin**, without opening the SPL app dashboard.
### How It Works
1. Go to **Shopify Admin → Orders**.
2. Open the TikTok order you want to process.
3. Scroll down to the **Blocks** section.
4. Click the **SPL TikTok Order Fulfillment** block.
5. Click **Create TikTok Shipping Label**.
6. Select the package and confirm fulfillment.

Once confirmed, the system sends fulfillment details to TikTok, generates the shipping label, and automatically syncs tracking information.
This method is ideal for merchants who manage all orders directly from Shopify and prefer not to switch between apps.
