Split Shopify Orders Across Fulfillment Locations
When Shopify assigns an order to a location that doesn't have everything in stock, someone has to move it by hand. This workflow checks stock for each fulfillment order on a new Shopify order and moves it to a location that has the items on hand, so orders ship from the right place without anyone reassigning them.

FAQs
Can one order ship from two locations?
Yes. Shopify can split an order into several fulfillment orders, and this workflow moves each one on its own, so different items can ship from different places.
What if no location has everything?
The workflow leaves the fulfillment order where it is and can tag the order, so your team decides how to split it.
Does this replace Shopify's order routing rules?
It runs after them. Keep your routing rules for the normal case, and let this workflow fix the orders they send to a location without stock.
