Hello,

• Open your Zoho Inventory organization.
  

• Navigate to Settings using the gear icon from the top-right corner.
  

• Select Automation from the sidebar. Now click on the button adjacent to +New Workflow Rule.
  

• Out of the four options from the drop-down, select Custom Functions.
  

• Now let's add a name for this workflow rule and make sure that there are no spaces between words.
  

• Select Sales Orders against module.
  

• Add a description if you need one.
  

• Now, the workflow type is going to be Event Based.
  

• The condition to set shall be, "When a Sales Order is created".
  

• And, for the trigger, it will be "When Sales Order status is Confirmed".
  

• Now copy and paste this code snippet into the deluge pane:
  

salesorderID = salesorder.get("salesorder_id"); 

salesorderdate = salesorder.get("date").toDate();

organizationID = organization.get("organization_id");

authtoken = "Copy and paste your authtoken here";

mapper = Map();

customerID = salesorder.get("customer_id").toString();

//package_number = salesorder.get("salesorder_number").replaceFirst("SO","PA");

//mapper.put("package_number",package_number);

mapper.put("customer_id",customerID);

mapper.put("date",salesorderdate);

lineItems = salesorder.get("line_items").toList();

newLineItems = List();

for each lineItem in lineItems

{

lineItemMap = Map();

solineitemID = lineItem.get("line_item_id");

lineItemMap.put("so_line_item_id",solineitemID);

quantity = lineItem.get("quantity");

lineItemMap.put("quantity",quantity);

newLineItems.add(lineItemMap);

}

mapper.put("line_items",newLineItems);

jsonString = Map();

jsonString.put("JSONString",mapper);

response = invokeurl

[

url :"https://inventory.zoho.com/api/v1/packages?authtoken=" + authtoken + "&salesorder_id=" + salesorderID + "&organization_id=" + organizationID

type : POST

parameters:jsonString

];

info mapper;

info response.toMap();

//shipment

pack=response.get("package");

packid=pack.get("package_id");

ship=Map();

ship.put("date",salesorderdate);

ship.put("delivery_method","dhl"); //REPLACE WITH SHIPPING CARRIER NAME OR DELIVERY BY SELF

jsons=Map();

jsons.put("JSONString",ship);

resp = invokeurl

[

url: "https://inventory.zoho.com/api/v1/shipmentorders?package_ids="+packid+"&salesorder_id=" +salesorderID+ "&authtoken="+authtoken+"&organization_id=" + organizationID

type: POST

parameters: jsons

];

info resp.toMap().get("message");

• Copy and replace your authtoken number with the text on line 4 of the code.
  

• authtoken = "copy and paste your authtoken here"; to something like, authtoken = "67xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx".
  

• You can change the carrier name/shipping medium by making changes to line 38 of the code that says: ship.put("delivery_method","dhl"); //REPLACE WITH SHIPPING CARRIER NAME - for e.g., "dhl" can be replaced with "fedex" or something of your choice like say, "delivery_by_self" or "picked_up_by_customer".
  

• Note: If you have enabled auto-generation of package numbers for your organization, then you don't need these two lines:
  

• //package_number = salesorder.get("salesorder_number").replaceFirst("SO","PA");
  

• //mapper.put("package_number",package_number);
  

• Once everything is ready, hit Save.
