What is the Fulfillment Failures section about?
In the Fulfillment Failures section are listed all orders that for some reason the Warehouse has rejected the shipment and returned an error message to CRM informing about it.
Please note that this error message is observable on the order page too.
However, it is NOT viewable in the order status but on the Shipping History section of the order page (see below example)
The Fatal Shipping Error: this error is given when CRM seeks information about the fulfillment and possibly the Tracking Number, if this is already available because the order was shipped.
In Fatal Shipping Error cases, the Warehouse has rejected the order because of a few reasons, for instance, part of the shipping address was incomplete or incorrect, or the Warehouse doesn’t ship orders to the country of the order, the product is no longer available at the Warehouse, etc.
Furthermore, the Warehouse can have fulfilled the orders, but the Tracking Number is not available because the product can't be delivered.The Fatal Tracking Error: this error is shown when CRM has been requesting information about the Tracking Number to the Warehouse, which hasn’t provided it and so, after a few attempts the order is flagged with this error
