In short

How do I get automatic alerts when ShipHero orders risk missing the carrier cutoff?

WebRun monitors ShipHero throughout the afternoon, counts unshipped orders against your carrier pickup cutoff time, and fires a Slack alert with the remaining order count and minutes to cutoff. Alerts escalate from advisory to urgent to critical as the window closes, giving the team time to clear the queue before the truck leaves.

  • The team gets a countdown alert before the carrier pickup window closes
  • Escalating alerts ensure urgency is clear at 2 hours, 1 hour, and 30 minutes out
  • Missed carrier pickups drop as at-risk order counts are visible in real time

Questions, answered

Will it notify customers if their order misses the cutoff?

No. Any customer-facing delay message is drafted and held for a manager to review and approve before sending. WebRun only fires the internal Slack cutoff risk alert.

How does it know my carrier pickup time?

You configure your carrier cutoff time and the alert lead times during setup. WebRun uses those settings to calculate when to fire advisory, urgent, and critical alerts.

Does it post to Slack all day long?

No. WebRun only fires alerts during the window you define before the carrier cutoff. Outside that window, it runs silently. When all orders are shipped, alerts stop automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
