Automation guide
Order processing is at the core of your ecommerce business - but it can also be time-consuming and, quite often, headache-inducing.
By automating the process, you can improve efficiency, speed up fulfilment and instead focus your energy on what matters most. But how does it all work?
In this guide, we’ll walk you through a typical order workflow, highlighting steps that are easy to get wrong (often with unseen costs).
We'll show you how our Automation Engine can step in to transform the way you work. We also reveal the steps you shouldn’t automate -at least not straightaway.

Automation in Action: See How Our Customers Typically Use Automation Rules
The whole point of automation is to save you time and simplify your day. That’s why, at Brightpearl, our Automation Engine is easy to understand and use.
With various pre-built conditions and actions, you can create automation rules that fit your own ecommerce workflows in just a few clicks.
All the rules consist of two parts - Conditions and Actions. When Conditions are met, configured Actions on related orders are automatically triggered.
Let’s take a look at some of our most used automation rules…

Conditions:
- Channel = Shopify, Amazon or New York Store
- Order Status = Ready to Process
Actions:

- If Fulfillment method = Dropship only, then send PO to the dropshipper and dropship goods to customer
- If Fulfillment method = Back Order only, then send PO to the supplier and ship goods to warehouse

Jack Lear, Bodysocks & BargainFox.com
"We now save 60 hours per week on order entry alone thanks to its automation component."
Nick Ernst, Snap Supply
"We’re using Brightpearl Automation to allocate and fulfill orders automatically – we’re now processing them 30% faster! It’s put our business firmly back in control – while also leading to happier customers."
Alida Sholl, Rep Fitness
"Brightpearl’s automation app saves me 25% of my order processing time every day – and we’ve only really just scratched the surface! That time back means I can focus on running other areas of the business rather than processing orders."
David Walsh, Bikebug
"We’re now saving 40 hours each month on tasks that previously we would have had to manage manually, which means we’re able to optimize staffing and remain lean as an organisation, despite our growth."
