Importing address data just got easier. You no longer need to manually convert country names to ISO codes before importing.
🔧 Improvements # Country name recognition – Altera now converts country names like “USA”, “U.S.A.”, “United States”, “UK”, and “Great Britain” to their correct ISO codes during import. Company location exports – Now include country names alongside country codes for easier reference.
Migrating from Etsy? We’ve added built-in transformations to convert your Etsy exports into the format Altera uses for Shopify imports.
🚀 What’s New # Etsy Products transformation – converts Etsy listing exports to the Shopify product format, including variants, images, and materials (see guide). Etsy Orders transformation – converts Etsy Order Item CSV exports to the Shopify order format with line items, shipping, and fulfillment status (see guide). Automatic format detection – uploading an Etsy file to the import page now shows a helpful message directing you to the Transform data feature.
You now have more control over how your exported data is formatted, with new options for datetime and phone number fields.
🚀 What’s New # Date/time formatting – Choose from 10 different date formats including ISO 8601, US, and UK styles to match your workflow or target system. Phone number normalization – Format phone numbers as strict international, readable international, or national format, or keep them as-is from Shopify. Phone cell formatting – Control whether phone cells include an apostrophe prefix to prevent Excel auto-formatting issues. CLI support – Use --datetime-format, --phone-format, and --phone-cell-format flags in the CLI tool. 🔧 Improvements # Advanced Options – New collapsible section on the export create page keeps the interface clean while providing access to formatting controls. Country-aware phone parsing – Phone number formatting uses the related address country code for accurate national format conversion.
You can now add line items to existing orders, making it easy to append products or custom charges without creating a new order.
🚀 What’s New # Order line item merging – set Line: Command to MERGE when updating orders to add new products or custom line items after the order is created. Archived order handling – the app automatically unarchives closed orders, adds the line items, and re-archives them if needed. Custom line items – add fees, services, or custom charges by specifying a title and price without linking to a product variant.
Filtering orders by product name makes it easier to isolate orders containing specific items for fulfillment, inventory analysis, and sales reporting. If a single line item title matches the filter, the order and all its line items will be included in the export.
🚀 What’s New # Line item title – filter orders by the title of any product in the order.
Filtering orders by location makes it easier to target exports for regional reporting, shipping analysis, and tax compliance.
🚀 What’s New # Shipping country code – filter orders by the country code of the shipping address. Billing country code – filter orders by the country code of the billing address.
We’ve made two updates to how order transactions are imported to better match Shopify’s requirements.
🔧 Improvements # Manual gateway default – transaction gateways now default to manual for SALE transactions. SALE transaction limit – order imports now keep only the first sale transaction when multiple are present. Other transaction types (authorization, capture, refund, void) are still imported normally.
Order exports now include discount amounts in both shop and presentment currencies, making it easier to analyze discounts across different market currencies.
🔧 Improvements # Discount allocation amounts – order exports now include presentment money amounts alongside shop money for line item discount allocations.
We’ve added a new field to order exports that captures the current shipping price, making it easier to track shipping costs after order edits.
🚀 What’s New # Current shipping price – exports now include the current shipping price alongside the original total shipping price, helping you track shipping cost changes after order edits.
Stores using Shopify Markets can now see the exact prices customers paid in their local currency when exporting orders.
🚀 What’s New # Line: Presentment Price – shows the price charged to the customer in their local currency. Line: Presentment Currency – displays the currency code for each line item (USD, EUR, GBP, etc.).
