While Order Desk excels at order rules, connecting to enterprise ERPs, specialized 3PLs, and custom systems requires development work that limits automation potential.
Order Desk's routing decisions depend on accurate inventory data, but without real-time integration to all fulfillment nodes, rules operate on incomplete information.
Managing complex workflows like split shipments, backorders, and multi-location fulfillment through Order Desk alone requires workarounds that become unmaintainable at scale.
