Symptoms
- •Customer service edits orders, but the changes do not appear in the ERP.
- •Fulfilled orders do not match the final customer invoice.
- •Refunds are processed against the original, not the edited, order.
Business Impact
Incorrect fulfilment, confused customers, and significant revenue leakage from un-captured up-sells or inaccurately processed refunds.
Root Causes
- •Relying solely on the initial 'orders/create' webhook.
- •Integration middleware lacks logic to handle 'orders/edited' events.
- •Ignoring the complexity of line item swaps vs. quantity changes.
How Cogent2 Resolves This
Architect an event-driven integration that subscribes to all relevant order webhooks, including 'orders/edited', and contains logic to reconcile changes against the master order record in the ERP.
