Prompt objective
Automate the complete order-to-shipping workflow eliminating manual steps between order placement and customer notification.
Real use case
An online store with 300 orders/day manually checks inventory, creates shipping labels one by one, and sends tracking emails. This takes 4 FTEs and causes 2% error rate in shipping.

Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
Prompt
Act as an e-commerce automation architect. Design a Make.com scenario for [STORE NAME] that automates order fulfillment from checkout to tracking notification. **Context:** - E-commerce platform: [SHOPIFY/WOOCOMMERCE] - Average orders per day: [NUMBER] - Shipping carriers: [CARRIER 1], [CARRIER 2] - Warehouse management: [WMS/SPREADSHEET] - Peak season multiplier: [X]x normal volume **Deliverables (numbered):** 1. Order trigger: webhook from [PLATFORM] for new paid orders, filter out test orders and refunds 2. Inventory check: query [INVENTORY SYSTEM] for each line item, handle out-of-stock scenarios (partial fulfillment vs. hold entire order) 3. Shipping label generation: auto-select carrier based on [RULES: weight, destination, cost], generate label via [SHIPPING API], store label URL 4. Customer notification sequence: order confirmation (immediate), shipped notification (with tracking link and carrier), delivery confirmation (via carrier webhook) 5. Exception handling: address validation failure, payment flagged for review, items on backorder, international customs documentation 6. Returns preprocessing: generate return label on customer request, update inventory on return receipt, trigger refund in [PAYMENT PROCESSOR] 7. Daily reconciliation report: orders processed, labels generated, exceptions, revenue by shipping method **Constraints:** - Must handle split shipments (items from different warehouses) - Must support international orders with customs forms - Must respect shipping cutoff times (e.g., orders after 2pm ship next day)
