How did We start?
Our team worked diligently to build an automated order management and shipping process for the international fashion store Steve Madden. We integrated the existing Shopify store with the third-party systems. Our Shopify developers seamlessly used various Shopify plugins to streamline the business operations of the online store. Our team used Microsoft Dot Net and Shopify to build an automated order management system.
Based on the order details, an OMS will make the warehouse selection as per its proximity to the order destination. It will automatically perform the next step by calculating the shipping costs and the fastest carriers based on preset criteria.
Our goal is to develop an order management system that reduces shipping cost and overhead charges. An OMS has various positive impacts on online stores, such as it increases data quality, improves the packaging system, streamlining return management, and credit card processing.
Once a customer buys a product, the order information automatically goes to the warehouse and the shipping information is automatically generated. The moment a customer makes the payment for the item, the order management system updates it in the QuickBooks accounting system, creates an invoice, and prints a shipping label. Once an order begins its journey an OMS is capable of tracking its progress.
