Errors / Pending / Suspended

Indicates that the order cannot be processed or shipping has been stopped due to a specific reason. The reasons for impossibility and suspension as recorded by Smartship are as follows.
3-1. Errors that occur regardless of order type
Item Price Error: If the product price is not saved or the order value for overseas shipping is ‘0’, it is judged to be a product price error. When shipping overseas, customs clearance is not possible in certain sections if the product value is ‘0’. In this case, please modify the product value through the order modification function.
Shipping Information Error : This applies if the recipient's address information has not been saved or the recipient's name is incorrect. In this case, please correct it correctly using the edit order function.
Cancel Request: It is judged only in the case of an API order, and this occurs when the buyer requests cancellation on the e-commerce sales site. For certain sites, claims can be processed through Smartship, and orders can be processed after claims are processed.
3-2. Error that only occurs for fulfillment orders
SKU Not Found: This applies to fulfillment orders, and if some of the products included in the order are not SKU mapped, it is judged to be a SKU mapping error.
Out of Stock: This applies to fulfillment orders, where shipment is not possible due to insufficient SKU received at the center after warehouse allocation. At this time, when SKU stock is replenished in QFC, the out of stock status is lifted and work continues.
Short of Gift : After registering the gift policy, the gift SKU that should be provided for eligible orders is out of stock. You can process your order by modifying the free gift or replenishing the free gift inventory through manual settings.
Pending: This is a case where shipping is judged to be impossible based on the judgment of the QFC manager. In this case, please contact your QFC manager or sales manager.
