The Problem
Customers placed orders by WhatsApp message. Staff had to read each one, interpret it, and create the Shopify order by hand.
What We Built
- WhatsApp message parsing
- Arabic language handling
- IQD currency handling
- Order creation through the Shopify API
- Payment status handling and error alerts
Workflow
- 01WhatsApp message
- 02Parse and interpret
- 03Validate products
- 04Create Shopify order
- 05Set payment status
- 06Alert on errors
Result
- Eliminated manual order entry
- Orders created directly in Shopify
- Errors flagged for a person instead of lost
Order messages flow straight into Shopify, with errors flagged for a person instead of silently lost.
