Assigning Products to Specific Suppliers

Hi,

 

I plan to start selling multiple types of products and want to make sure the orders go to the right suppliers for fulfillment.

 

I have one supplier (A) for apparel, and another supplier (B) for home decor - who happens to also sell apparel.

 

If I have a t-shirt order come in, how do I ensure this order goes to supplier A for fulfillment and not B?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Blessings,

 

Mark

Hi @TriTexCreations , Can you let me know which fulfillment API you are using?

Had done a lot of such integration for clients.

Hi. Where do I find out which fulfillment API I'm using? I used Printful right now.

Couple ideas:

 

1) Easiest way you can use Order Automator to automatically change location, request fulfillment, send custom email notifications, etc by setting up rules (if vendor = Vendor A then request fulfillment to Supplier A... or same thing but send them an email with their products in the order)

 

2) You might be able to do this in order routing settings too if it's not too complex: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/fulfillment/setup/order-routing/understanding-order-routing
