Additional Configuration (Optional)

• Once a seller has set up their DP, it is automatically enabled for the seller's company.
• Since Fynd Commerce is an omnichannel platform, a seller might operate one or multiple sales channels for their business.
• In some cases, sellers may want to configure individual sales channels with customized preferences for which DP they wish to use or prioritize for assignment.
• Fynd Commerce offers a rule engine configuration that allows sellers to customize DP assignment preferences and priorities for shipments. In this section, sellers can access all accounts they have enabled through an extension. It is crucial for the extension to inform the platform of all create, update, and disable events in real-time, as sellers will be accessing these accounts through this configuration. Additionally, shipment creation calls from OMS to the respective DP extension's account will continue unless updated information is provided.

• This FDK method helps in identifying the next allowed state for a particular current state, which is useful for validating state transitions before updating the status on Fynd OMS: Allowed State Transition .

• Refer to OMS States, which contains a list of possible states a DP can send for reference.
