Manage failed to handover orders

Eshopbox prepares and packs the order for handover to the pickup person. The following scenarios may occur depending on the type of order:

  • For marketplace orders, Eshopbox handovers the order to the pickup person and updates the status to "Handover done" on the Eshopbox workspace.

  • For shopping cart orders, the order status is updated to "On the way" in the Eshopbox workspace once it leaves the fulfilment centre for delivery.

If there are any issues with the handover of the order at the fulfilment centre, then the order is marked as "Failed to hand over" on the Eshopbox workspace. Eshopbox recommends tracking these exceptions and taking timely action to ensure delivery to the customer.

An order may fail to handover if:

  • The customer cancels the order before it leaves the fulfilment centre.

  • The pickup person denies the order pickup.
