Intermediate
ecommerce orders automation logistics

Automate order confirmations, fulfilment routing, shipping updates, delivery confirmations, return processing, and exception alerts.

What It Does

  • Order Confirmation: send personalised order confirmations with estimated delivery
  • Fulfilment Routing: route orders to the optimal warehouse based on stock and location
  • Shipping Update: send real-time shipping updates at each carrier milestone
  • Delivery Confirmation: confirm delivery and trigger a review request
  • Return Processing: initiate return labels, track receipt, and trigger refund
  • Order Exception Alert: alert the ops team when orders are delayed or stuck
