Checkout+: Set Up Auto-Fulfill Flow
OVERVIEW
This article goes over how to create a Shopify Flow that will automatically mark Checkout+ as fulfilled, but only after other items in the order have been fulfilled.
Use the menu on the left to quickly navigate this article.
How it works
The diagram below shows what the flow will look like when completed:
Setup
The auto-fulfillment flow is built in Shopify Flow. To get started, open the Shopify admin and type Flow into the search bar.
Once you’re in the app, click Create Workflow.
Next, click Select a trigger.
Set the initial trigger to Fulfillment created.
The second step should be an action.
For the action, select Flow.
Next, in the Flow menu, click For each loop (iterate).
Under Items, click Select variable, then search for and select fulfillment.order.fulfillmentOrder.
Under Repeat for each item, click the + and then click Condition.
Click Add a variable, then search for product handle and select order/lineItems/product/ handle (String).
To find the handle, in a separate tab open up the Checkout+ product in the Shopify admin and scroll down to the Search engine listing section. The handle is the last part of the URL shown in the preview (for example, checkout). To see it clearly labeled, click Edit and copy the value from the URL handle field.
Back complete the condition by setting order/lineItems/product/handle is equal to the handle value you copied (for example, checkout).
In the same condition, click Add criteria and select AND so that both checks must be true.
Click Add variable, search for delivery method method type, and select methodType.
Set method type to Equal to NONE. The condition should now read: product handle is equal to your handle and method type is equal to NONE.
Under the condition's True branch, click the + and pick Action.
Search for Mark a fulfillment order as fulfilled. Choose whether or not to notify the shopper that the order has been fulfilled.
Note: The shopper most likely will have already received a fulfillment update when the warehouse marked the other items as fulfilled, so we recommend leaving this off.When this last step is in place, click Turn on workflow. Once enabled, monitor the merchant's Checkout+ orders to make sure the workflow is functioning as expected.
