Steps

Step arrow right iconDefault Order and Fulfilment Types

In the reference solution, Fluent Store supports two order types:

  • Home Delivery (HD)
  • Click and Collect (CC)

and the following fulfilment types:

  • HD_PFDC
  • HD_PFS
  • CC_PFDC

  • STC
  • SFDC

Step arrow right iconPermissions

Users with 

`SETTING_VIEW`
`SETTING_CREATE`
, and 
`SETTING_UPDATE`
 permissions can add new order and fulfilment types to Fluent Store.


Step arrow right iconAdd a new Order Type

In case an order of newly created (custom) order type has Home Delivery or Click and Collect fulfillments the following settings should be created or updated on the Account level:

  • `fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.customer.collections`
  • `fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.carrier.collections`
  • `fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.uncollected`

If the settings mentioned above do not exist in Fluent OMS, we suggest taking reference fragments, copying JSON into a setting, and then extending it with a new order type or order and fulfillment type. To get the reference manifest to go to Lingo.

Use Case 1. Orders of custom order type have Home Delivery fulfillments which are being shipped to a customer.

The setting 

`fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.customer.collections`
 should be extended with new order type, e.g.

Use Case 2. Orders of custom order type have Click and Collect fulfillments which are being shipped from the fulfilling store to the customer's pick up location.

The setting

 should be extended with new order type:

No alt provided

Use Case 3. Uncollected orders of custom order type should be managed in Store.

The setting 

`manifest.store.fragment.uncollected`
 should be extended with the new order type. Please, check the image below in the Add a new Fulfilment Type section.
