Article summary

One of the core features of ShopCtrl is order management (fulfillment and shipping of orders).

The system features a complete order management cycle from an order, printing invoice, and marking it shipped. Which is capable of downloading orders automatically from many different channels (eBay, Amazon, Magento, wooCommerce, and other websites), merge the orders with payment files, and follow up on the sale (where the facility exists).

One of the system's unique features is the ability to link order management to your inventory control. Whenever the order is placed and processed, the stock level will be modified accordingly and then pushed back to all of the other channels that you sell the same item on, therefore reducing the risk of overselling.


Incoming orders

ShopCtrl imports orders from all your sales channels. Examples of sales channels are:

  • Marketplaces like eBay and Amazon
  • Shopping platforms (i.e., Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce etc.)
  • Custom-developed shopping platforms
  • Manual / Phone orders

The orders grid window is fully customizable and is the starting point of any actions around the order process:
