Feature
Description

Customers orders

Order management for employees

Tenant employees can create, retrieve, delete, and update orders in the Management Dashboard.

Order history

Customers and employees can view past orders for reference and tracking.

Reordering from last order

Enables customers to reorder previous purchases quickly, improving convenience and efficiency.

Orders with calculated prices

Allows customers to place orders with products that have variable pricing (for example weight-based items where the final price is determined later).

High volumes management

Designed to handle large-scale order processing without performance troubles.

Automatic / elastic scaling

The system automatically scales resources to handle peak order volumes without performance issues.

Order queues and virtual waiting

Optimized order processing removes delays and virtual waiting times, enhancing user experience.

Overview

Orders operations can be handled end-to-end by Emporix or integrated with external systems, providing businesses with multiple approaches to order management.

The Order Service is built to support both B2B and B2C commerce. Additionally, the service offers dedicated endpoints for different use cases like allowing customers to create and retrieve their own orders, while also enabling employees to handle orders through tenant-managed processes.
