SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATING TASKS ACROSS MULTIPLE ONLINE STORES

Abstract:

A merchant may use an e-commerce platform to sell products to customers on an online store. The merchant may have more than one online store, each with its own separate inventory, orders, domain name (or subdomain), currency, etc. A computer-implemented system and method are provided that allow the merchant to build workflows to automate tasks at the organizational level, i.e. workflows that can incorporate triggers, conditions, and/or actions from and across the different online stores that belong to the merchant.
