When customers make a purchase via your Shopify store (brick & mortar store or online store), you can send the order automatically to your Fulfillment partner, which can be a vendor, dropshipper, warehouse, 3PL, fulfillment center, just-in-time supplier, or another Shopify store. Each Fulfillment partner can have multiple Fulfillment locations, and you can send orders to different Fulfillment locations depending on order routing logic, such as inventory availability, shipping destination country, shipping method, etc. If the order contains multiple Fulfillment partners, it is automatically split into separate suborders and routed to different Fulfillment partners.
You can send or route orders in multiple ways. Order Fulfillment Guru currently supports the following Connectors. You can mix and match these Connectors in your store, depending on your and your Fulfillment partners' needs.
