How it works

3 steps to tag your orders with real-time fulfillment status updates

App connector: Tracktor • Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured)

Why this matters: This trigger monitors your Tracktor fulfillment tracking for any status changes and kicks off the entire workflow whenever a package moves through the shipping process.

This step automatically activates when Tracktor detects a fulfillment status change for any of your orders. The trigger captures the updated status information (like "Out for Delivery" or "Delivered") along with the associated Shopify order ID. No configuration is needed - MESA connects directly to your Tracktor account and listens for these updates in real-time. When a status change occurs, this step passes the fulfillment data to the next step for processing.

App connector: Shopify • Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured)

Why this matters: This step fetches the complete Shopify order details using the order ID from Tracktor, ensuring you have all the necessary order information before adding tags.

MESA automatically retrieves the full order record from your Shopify store using the order ID provided by the Tracktor trigger. This step pulls in essential order details like current tags, customer information, and order status to prepare for the tagging action. The system handles this data retrieval automatically without requiring any input from you. Once the order information is collected, it gets passed to the final step along with the new fulfillment status.

App connector: Shopify • Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured)

Why this matters: This step applies the current fulfillment status as a tag on your Shopify order, giving you and your customers clear visibility into shipping progress.

This action automatically adds a new tag to your Shopify order based on the latest fulfillment status from Tracktor. The tag will display the exact status label (such as "In Transit", "Out for Delivery", or "Delivered") directly on the order in your Shopify admin. The workflow is designed to continuously add new status tags as the package progresses through shipping, creating a complete tracking history on each order. This tagging happens instantly when Tracktor reports a status change, keeping your order management system current with real shipping updates.

Customize this workflow even further:

Add conditional logic for specific statuses

Create filter conditions that only tag orders when they reach certain statuses, like "Delivered" or "Exception", to avoid cluttering orders with every minor transit update.

Send customer notifications for key milestones

Extend the workflow to automatically email or SMS customers when packages reach important statuses like "Out for Delivery" or "Delivered" using your preferred messaging service.

Update custom order fields with tracking details

Connect additional steps to populate custom metafields on your orders with detailed tracking information like estimated delivery dates or carrier details from Tracktor.

Create status-based inventory alerts

Chain inventory management actions that trigger when orders are delivered, such as automatically reordering products that fall below stock thresholds or updating demand forecasting data.
