24 Automation Actions You Can Build Without Writing Code
WarpWare's rule engine ships with 24 action types out of the box. Every one of them is configurable through the visual rule builder — no code, no deployments, no developer required.
Here's what you can automate.
Order Routing
-Route to destination — send orders to specific warehouses based on any condition
-Set carrier — assign USPS, UPS, or FedEx based on weight, value, or destination
-Set shipping method — override the shipping speed (ground, express, overnight)
Order Management
-Hold order — pause fulfillment until a condition is met or a time passes
-Release order — automatically release held orders on schedule
-Cancel order — auto-cancel orders matching specific criteria
-Flag for review — mark orders for manual inspection without blocking the pipeline
Data Enrichment
-Tag order — add custom tags for filtering, reporting, or downstream processing
-Set priority — assign priority levels that affect processing order
-Set notes — attach internal notes visible to warehouse staff
-Set billing code — override billing classification for invoicing
Inventory Actions
-Check stock — verify inventory before pushing to warehouse
-Reserve stock — hold inventory for specific orders or channels
-Decrement immediately — instant inventory reduction across all channels
Notification Actions
-Send webhook — trigger external systems when conditions match
-Send email alert — notify team members about specific order conditions
-Log event — create custom audit trail entries
Advanced
-Split order — separate line items into multiple fulfillment orders
-Merge orders — combine multiple orders for the same customer
-Transform fields — modify order data before it reaches the warehouse
-Apply discount — adjust pricing for specific conditions
-Route to queue — send orders to custom processing queues
-Execute script — run custom logic via Partner API webhook
Building Rules
Every action is triggered by conditions. WarpWare supports 20 operators across 55+ fields — you can target anything from order total to individual line item properties to custom metadata fields.
Rules evaluate in priority order, and the first rule to claim a field wins. This prevents conflicts and makes the system predictable even with dozens of active rules.
All of this is available in the visual rule builder. Point, click, configure, activate.
