Daily Warehouse Exceptions Report
Every morning, WebRun opens ShipStation, finds orders that are on hold, past their ship-by date, or missing required information, logs them to an exceptions sheet, and posts a prioritised report to Slack before your team's daily stand-up.
How can I automatically run a daily warehouse exceptions report before my team's stand-up?
Every morning, WebRun opens ShipStation, finds orders on hold, past their ship-by date, or missing required information, logs them to an exceptions Google Sheet, and posts a prioritised report to Slack before your team's daily stand-up — so nothing ships late without visibility.
- Problem orders surfaced before the daily stand-up every morning
- Exceptions logged to Google Sheets for ongoing tracking
- Late shipments prevented by early daily visibility
Built for warehouse managers · logistics operations teams · ecommerce fulfillment teams · supply chain coordinators

Questions, answered
Does it resolve the exceptions or just report them?
It reports only — every resolution (cancelling an order, contacting a customer, updating an address) is a human decision. WebRun hands you the list; you work it.
Can I adjust which exception types it looks for?
Yes. You can add or remove exception categories — for example, add orders flagged for fraud review or remove a hold type you no longer use.
What if there are no exceptions today?
It posts a short "all clear" message so you know the run completed and everything is on track — silence is not an option.
