coreSTORE - Fulfillment: Configuring Automatic Customer Order Notifications
In this guide, we will cover how to configure your Fulfillment Status to enable automatic customer notifications.
Click on Statuses
Navigate to the Fulfillment menu and click on the Statuses submenu.
Click on Add Status
If you wish to create a new status, you can do that here. However, for this example, we will be modifying an existing status.
Click on Edit
Select the status you wish to update, and then modify the notification type and content accordingly.
Notify Customer Via Email
If you wish to send the customer updates every time a fulfillment is switched to this status via email, go ahead and check that option.
Email Content
Here’s how you can personalize and automate your email content using replacement fields for fulfillment updates:
================================================================================================================
*
Example Email Content:
Dear {people.full\_name},
Thank you again for your order! The following items from order {[**sales.sale**](http://sales.sale)**\_id}** have been shipped:
{shipment.items}
Click the tracking number below to check the status of your shipment:
{sales\_shipments.tracking\_url}
We appreciate your business!

By using these replacement fields, the system will automatically pull in the customer’s name, order number, items, and tracking link for a personalized experience
