RTS Non-Priority Meaning in Meesho — What to Do With These Orders

RTS non-priority in Meesho means an order that is Ready to Ship but whose dispatch deadline is not immediate — you have breathing room before its SLA date, unlike priority RTS orders which are due now. Meesho splits your ready-to-ship queue this way so you always know what must go out today versus what can go in the next batch.

Key Takeaways

RTS non-priority = ready to ship, SLA not urgent yet.
Priority RTS = due today — always dispatch these first.
Non-priority isn't "ignore" — it becomes priority as the SLA nears.
Best practice: dispatch everything daily regardless of priority.
The split exists to protect you from SLA breaches.

Priority vs Non-Priority — How the Queue Works

Queue	Meaning	Your move
RTS priority	SLA today/imminent	Pack & hand over first
RTS non-priority	SLA has buffer days	Include in today's batch if possible
SLA breached	Deadline passed	Dispatch immediately, expect penalty risk

The labels are a sorting aid, not a work-avoidance permission. Every non-priority order is a future priority order — the queue just tells you the order in which trouble arrives.

Why You Should Ship Non-Priority Orders Anyway

Sellers who dispatch only priority orders live permanently at the edge of the SLA. One courier hiccup — a missed pickup, a holiday — and yesterday's comfortable non-priority queue becomes today's breach list. Dispatching everything ready in each daily batch costs nothing extra (same pickup, same trip) and buys you a buffer against exactly those hiccups. Faster dispatch also means faster delivery, which means fewer refusals and less RTO.

A Clean Daily RTS Routine

Once a day: open the RTS queue, sort priority first, accept and print all labels in one go (crop them with the label tool for fast clean printing), pack against labels, and hand the whole batch to the courier. Priority orders protect you from penalties; clearing non-priority protects you from tomorrow. The full workflow is in the order processing SOP.

FAQs

What does RTS non-priority mean in Meesho?

It's a ready-to-ship order whose SLA deadline still has buffer time — unlike priority RTS orders, which are due for dispatch immediately.

Should I ship non-priority RTS orders immediately?

Ideally yes — include them in your daily dispatch batch. It costs nothing extra and protects you if a pickup fails or volume spikes later.

What happens if I delay non-priority orders?

They become priority as their SLA approaches, and any hiccup then risks a breach and late-dispatch penalty.

How does Meesho decide priority vs non-priority?

By the order's SLA date — orders whose dispatch deadline is imminent are marked priority so you handle them first.
