Fulfilling preorder items:

1. Verify inventory availability
   • Ensure your preorder products are now in stock and ready to ship
2. Go to Orders

3. Locate preorder orders
   • Look for orders that contain preorder items (these may show as unfulfilled)
4. Fulfill the order
   • Click on the order and select "Fulfill items" to process the shipment
5. Add tracking information
