Receiving orders at fulfillmenttools
The fulfillmenttools connector app uses commercetools subscriptions to get notified once the commercetools OrderState of an order is changed to Confirmed. With this status the commercetools order is ready and a new order is created in the fulfillmenttools platform.
Depending on the shipping method of the commercetools order, either a ship-from-store or a click-and-collect order is created in fulfillmenttools.
Fulfillment status update at commercetools
As a result of the order routing process, a pick job will be created in the fulfillmenttools platform. During the lifetime of the pick job (picking started, finished) and the corresponding handover job (created, handed over), the fulfillmenttools platform will send out events with status updates. The fulfillmenttools connector app processes this information to update the custom fields and the ShipmentState of the commercetools order.
