The Challenge

Eagle Fishing handled order fulfillment manually across 4 separate systems:

  • •Manual order copying from WooCommerce to ATUM inventory
  • •Manual invoicing in Fortnox for each order
  • •Separate shipping label generation via DHL portal
  • •Status updates back to customer were manual
  • •High error rate (10-15%) due to manual data entry

Problem: Manual process took ~25 minutes per order, high error frequency, no real-time visibility, and scalability problems during peak seasons.
