How To Create Shipments Programmatically in Magento 2

Shipping is an important factor in any online store because it has a trong impact on customer experience ad conversions. Convenient shipping methods will be an incentive for customers to add products to the cart and complete the checkout.

In Magento 2, creating a shipment programmatically is the convenient way to add the new shipment as you need. Creating shipment sounds complex but if you use programatic way, it’s simple and time-saving. To do that, the following code is all required things you have to run on Magento 2 console.

Let’s follow the instruction and see how the results come out.

// Load the order increment ID
$order = $this->_objectManager->create('Magento\Sales\Model\Order')->loadByIncrementID($incrementid);

// OR
$order = $this->_objectManager->create('Magento\Sales\Model\Order')
    ->loadByAttribute('increment_id', '000000001');


//load by order 
$order = $this->_objectManager->create('Magento\Sales\Model\Order')
    ->load('1');

// Check if order can be shipped or has already shipped
if (! $order->canShip()) {
    throw new \Magento\Framework\Exception\LocalizedException(
                    __('You can\'t create an shipment.')
                );
}

// Initialize the order shipment object
$convertOrder = $this->_objectManager->create('Magento\Sales\Model\Convert\Order');
$shipment = $convertOrder->toShipment($order);

// Loop through order items
foreach ($order->getAllItems() AS $orderItem) {
    // Check if order item has qty to ship or is virtual
    if (! $orderItem->getQtyToShip() || $orderItem->getIsVirtual()) {
        continue;
    }

    $qtyShipped = $orderItem->getQtyToShip();

    // Create shipment item with qty
    $shipmentItem = $convertOrder->itemToShipmentItem($orderItem)->setQty($qtyShipped);

    // Add shipment item to shipment
    $shipment->addItem($shipmentItem);
}

// Register shipment
$shipment->register();

$shipment->getOrder()->setIsInProcess(true);

try {
    // Save created shipment and order
    $shipment->save();
    $shipment->getOrder()->save();

    // Send email
    $this->_objectManager->create('Magento\Shipping\Model\ShipmentNotifier')
        ->notify($shipment);

    $shipment->save();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    throw new \Magento\Framework\Exception\LocalizedException(
                    __($e->getMessage())
                );
}
