Already have a wholesaler who ships on your behalf? Anyweb can build around their approved ordering process, from structured email and files to an API, while keeping acceptance, shipment and customer communication distinct.
Free first look. Scope, connections and costs agreed before a production build.
Illustrative data, designed to make the workflow easier to discuss.
| Step | Supplier signal | Store response |
|---|---|---|
| Request sent | Purchase reference accepted | Await acknowledgment |
| One item unavailable | Partial acceptance | Staff decision needed |

Fictional order. A sent request, supplier acceptance and physical shipment are separate events.
Choose an example source to see the first feasibility questions.
Agree a stable column map, delivery schedule and SKU key. Validate the file before publishing changes and flag a missing or stale delivery.
Illustrative planning guide. This does not inspect your provider or confirm that a connection is available.Before designing the connector, confirm dropship eligibility, supported destinations, order cutoffs, packing requirements and return handling. The supplier must agree to the order format and the customer details needed to ship. Software cannot replace those commercial arrangements.
Shopify’s native custom fulfillment service can send order information by email. It does not automatically return fulfillment progress. If you need acknowledgments, inventory checks or tracking import, we assess the supplier’s supported inputs and outputs before proposing a custom workflow.
Map store variants to supplier item codes and confirm quantities, shipping method and address requirements. Only the agreed order state should trigger transmission. A repeated event or retry must not become a second supplier purchase.
Partial shipments, substitutions, cancellations and returns need explicit rules. A cancellation request may arrive after picking has started; it is not a confirmed cancellation. Keep supplier responses visible and update only the shipment quantities supported by actual dispatch evidence.
Each step makes the dependencies, decisions and handoffs visible.
Validate the approved order.
Send the supplier purchase request.
Record acceptance or an exception.
Match dispatch details to the order.

Read the case studyWhat is possible depends on your data, existing systems and the way your business works.
Native email fulfillment may be enough. A more structured workflow depends on whether their replies provide reliable acceptance and dispatch details.
Yes, with line-level ownership, separate requests and clear partial-shipment handling. Supplier charges and shipping promises need their own rules.
When an authorized, reliable dispatch source can be matched to the correct fulfillment. Ambiguous records should wait for review.
No. You need an approved relationship, usable data access and agreed ordering terms with each supplier.
Route Shopify order lines to approved suppliers using SKU ownership, availability, landed cost and shipping rules, with clear exceptions and partial shipments.
