Order fulfillment feature overview

Manage order fulfillment with ease

This Magento Order Fulfillment module is made for businesses handling many orders per day and those who want to optimize their order processing. Our Magento 2 Order Fulfillment module supports the typical order fulfillment process at an SME warehouse below.

  • Verify order (optional): sales staff confirm and edit customer’s shipping and billing address
  • Check available stock: separate orders into 2 groups whether all ordered items are available in stock or not
  • Pick items: print picking list for multiple orders at once, scan a barcode to verify picked items
  • Pack items: create multiple packages for an order, scan barcode again, print and add packing slips
  • Deliver packages: display shipping information and tracking number provided by the carrier

Assign staff roles in order processing

Order fulfillment assign role

It’s faster to complete order processing when you have staff specialized in each step of the flow. With our Magento Fulfillment software—a part of Magento Commerce Order Management, you can easily assign different staff to different steps. This also enhances accuracy and security throughout the whole order processing flow.

Scan barcode to speed up order processing

With a barcode scanner, you can improve the speed and accuracy of the Magento order processing automation. The 2-step barcode scanning in our Magento Order Fulfillment system supports the best practice in order processing to avoid mistakes.

This means you can scan the first time to ensure you’ve picked up the right items, then scan the second time in packing to double-check. This saves you a lot of time and potential costs, especially if you have many orders to fulfill daily.

Fulfill orders from multiple warehouses easily

In our Magento Order Management module, you can send a fulfillment request to multiple warehouses per order. While in other order management systems, the store manager can only send one request to one warehouse at one time.

That means if the items in an order are located in 2 separate warehouses, you need to send request twice. But with Magestore Order Management software, you just need to send request once. Moreover, our software can save your time by suggesting the best warehouses with available stock to ship the orders.

FAQs

1. What is order fulfillment in supply chain management?

In supply chain management, order fulfillment is the process of receiving, processing, and delivering orders to customers. It involves various activities such as inventory management, picking and packing products, shipping, and ensuring timely delivery to customers. The goal of order fulfillment is to efficiently and accurately fulfill customer orders while minimizing costs and meeting customer expectations.

2. What is the order fulfillment process?

The order fulfillment process often includes the following steps:

  • Order receipt: The process begins when a customer places an order through a sales channel, such as a website, phone, or in-person.
  • Order processing: The order is reviewed, verified, and entered into the system. This step includes checking product availability, customer information, pricing, and payment details.
  • Inventory management: The system checks the inventory levels to ensure the ordered items are in stock. If the items are available, they are reserved for the order.
  • Picking and packing: The ordered items are physically picked from the warehouse shelves or storage area. They are then securely packed and labeled with shipping information.
  • Shipping: The packed order is handed over to the shipping carrier or logistics partner for delivery to the customer. The shipment is tracked, and the customer may receive a tracking number for monitoring purposes.
  • Delivery: The order is transported to the customer’s specified location. Depending on the chosen shipping method, it may be delivered by a courier, postal service, or a dedicated fleet.
  • Order tracking and updates: Throughout the process, the customer may receive notifications about the order status, including shipment confirmation and estimated delivery dates.
  • Order completion and customer satisfaction: Once the order is successfully delivered, the fulfillment process is considered complete.

It’s important to note that the specific order fulfillment process may vary depending on the company, industry, and the systems they have in place.

3. What are the three options for order fulfillment?

The three options for order fulfillment are:

  • In-house fulfillment: This involves managing the entire fulfillment process internally, from receiving and processing orders to picking, packing, and shipping the products. It provides more control over the process but requires infrastructure, resources, and expertise.
  • 3rd-party fulfillment (3PL): With this option, a 3rd-party logistics provider is responsible for handling the fulfillment process on behalf of the business. They receive, store, pick, pack, and ship the products. It allows businesses to outsource fulfillment operations, reducing infrastructure and labor costs.
  • Dropshipping: In dropshipping, the business doesn’t hold inventory. Instead, when an order is received, it is forwarded to a supplier or manufacturer who handles the fulfillment directly. The supplier ships the products directly to the customer. Dropshipping eliminates the need for inventory management and lower upfront costs but may limit control over the fulfillment process.

4. How do I process orders in Magento?

Follow these general steps to process orders in Magento:

  • Log in to the admin panel and go to Sales > Orders
  • Find the desired order, review details, and make any necessary changes. Then, invoice the order to capture payment
  • Create a shipment, select the shipping method, and generate a label with tracking information
  • Mark the order as complete or shipped. This updates the order status and notifies the customer about the shipment. If necessary, you can also send order-related notifications or updates to the customer through the Magento admin panel.
  • Finally, make sure to update the inventory levels in Magento to reflect the items that have been shipped, so that accurate stock information is maintained.

Please note that the exact steps and options may vary depending on your specific version of Magento and any customizations you have implemented.

5. Is Magento an order fulfillment company?

No, Magento is not an order fulfillment company. Magento is an eCommerce platform that provides software for building and managing online stores. It offers a range of features and functionalities to facilitate the selling of products or services online, including order management capabilities.

However, Magento itself does not handle the physical order fulfillment process. That responsibility typically lies with the merchant or may be outsourced to a 3rd-party fulfillment company or logistics provider.

6. Does Magento have OMS?

Order Management System (OMS) is a feature available in Magento Commerce—the paid version of Magento, which offers an integrated OMS as part of its feature set. The OMS in Magento Commerce provides advanced order management capabilities, including centralized order processing, inventory management, order routing, and integration with various fulfillment options and carriers. It’s designed to help merchants efficiently manage and fulfill orders across multiple sales channels.

Merchants using Magento Commerce have the OMS functionality built into the platform, eliminating the need for separate 3rd-party OMS integrations.

Merchants using Magento Open Source can use native fulfillment software like Magestore to centralize orders from all sales channels and platforms and marketplaces for streamlined order processing.
