DMSi Agility Automated Bundle Backorder Alerts

Every few hours, WebRun opens DMSi Agility, finds orders staged or shipping with a bundle short of what the contractor ordered, drafts a backorder notice in Gmail explaining what shipped and what's still coming for the branch to review, and drafts a follow up text in Twilio the moment the missing bundles receive into stock so the contractor knows their order is finally complete.

In short

How do I alert contractors when their order ships with a bundle on backorder?

Every few hours, WebRun opens DMSi Agility and finds orders shipping short a bundled product like shingles or accessories. It drafts a backorder notice in Gmail explaining what shipped and what's still coming for the branch to review, then drafts a follow up text in Twilio the moment the missing bundles receive into stock, so no contractor is left guessing.

  • Contractors hear about a shortage before they show up expecting a full load
  • Backorder notices go out with the real restock date, not a guess
  • Nobody gets a completed order text until the missing bundles are actually in stock

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it notify the contractor about a shortage without review?

No. WebRun drafts the backorder notice in Gmail and leaves it unsent. The branch reviews and sends it, so no contractor hears about a shortage before your team confirms the detail.

What counts as a bundle shortage?

Any staged or shipping order where the quantity picked for a bundled product is less than what the contractor ordered, read directly from the pick detail in DMSi Agility rather than the original order line.

How does it know when the backorder is resolved?

It watches the open purchase order in DMSi Agility for the missing bundles receiving into stock, then drafts a follow up text in Twilio so the contractor is told the moment their order is actually complete.
