Manage custom orders more effectively by delaying order status updates until they’re ready for shipment.

Perfect for merchants with custom steps in their fulfillment process, this setup ensures customers receive tracking information at the right time.

How this template works:
A Shopify order is created
The workflow activates when a new order is created in Shopify.

Wait for 2 days
A two-day delay is applied before proceeding, allowing time for order preparation before updating the status.

Retrieve order details
After the delay, the workflow retrieves the latest order details from Shopify.

Check if the order is still unfulfilled
The fulfillment status is checked to ensure the order has not already been processed before continuing.

Update the order’s custom status
If the order remains unfulfilled, its manual tracking status is updated in Tracktor.

Notify the customer via email
An email is sent to the customer informing them that their order is being prepared for shipment and providing a tracking link.
