How PIDReady works

Four steps, all inside your Shopify admin. The screens below come from a demo store.

1. See what's missing

Install PIDReady and it checks every variant you ship for the three product identifiers, the HS code and the country of origin. Home shows what's missing, in plain words.

Home shows how many products are ready for EU customs and how many still need a fix. — Demo store: Home

Home lists what is missing, code by code: the maker's code, barcode, 'Made in', customs code and product code. — Demo store: what's missing, code by code

2. Fix what's safe in one go

“Fix everything I can” runs every quick fix that needs no answer from you: SKUs made from product names, maker's codes your store already has, and 'Made in' and customs codes learnt from your own products. You see one preview first, and one Undo in History puts it all back for 30 days.

Fix everything I can: one button runs every fix that needs no answer from you. — Demo store: Fixes

A preview shows each value before and after the change, with examples. — Demo store: the preview, before and after

3. Answer what only you know

What is left is a few short questions: do you make your own products, and which have no barcode? Answer once and PIDReady fixes many products. HS codes are suggested from your own products or the UK Trade Tariff, with how sure and why. Nothing is saved until you confirm. Prefer a spreadsheet? Download the template, fill it in, upload it: every row is checked before anything changes.

An HS code suggestion with how sure PIDReady is and why, to confirm with one click. — Demo store: an HS code suggestion

A spreadsheet upload with every row checked before saving, and the rows with errors explained. — Demo store: a spreadsheet, checked first

4. Download your carrier file

Choose FedEx's layout or a universal file with every code. Variants you mark as having no barcode carry the exception customs expect.

Download a FedEx file or a universal file for any other carrier or shipping app. — Demo store: Carrier file

Undo anything for 30 days

History keeps every old value. One click puts it back.

History lists each change with its date and status, and an Undo button that puts the old values back. — Demo store: History
