Notify the warehouse only when orders leave tomorrow

The template's reference page, with its trigger, steps and requirements: Orders leaving tomorrow.

1. 1

   Start from the template

   «New workflow», «Start from a template», "Orders leaving tomorrow".

2. 2

   Check the time

   Click the trigger. The «Time zone» is written into the template as Europe/Madrid, whatever your company's zone is. Change it if needed.

3. 3

   Fill in the blanks

   Pick the role of «Internal notification» (the people who will see the notification) and the Slack channel.

4. 4

   Test it

   A scheduled workflow has no Run button. To see it work before tomorrow morning, make a reserved order that starts tomorrow, then move the cron to the next minute, publish, and watch the run. You need both: an order without the cron change runs nothing, and the cron change without an order ends quietly after the search. Put the cron back afterwards.

5. 5

   Publish and activate

   «Publish and activate».

• The workflow searches first and notifies only if the result has at least one item. With no orders, the run ends after step 4, and costs the credits of the steps that ran, not those of the notifications.
• The dates come from Today, never typed in. A date typed in would be right for one day only.
• The search returns up to 100 orders, so the count in the message tops out at 100.
• Compare it with the template for overdue returns, which does the opposite on purpose: it posts a Neo summary every day, even with no delays, while "Orders not returned on time" stays quiet unless there are some.
