Questions, answered
Will it notify customers about their delayed order automatically?
No. Customer-facing delay notifications are drafted but held for human review before sending. WebRun only posts the internal worklist to Google Sheets automatically.
How does it define a short pick?
A short pick is any order line where the quantity picked is less than the quantity ordered, as flagged in ShipHero's exception reporting. No custom configuration is needed.
What happens when the worklist is empty?
WebRun clears the sheet and writes a single row confirming no short picks were found today, so the team knows the run completed and no action is needed.
