Medusa has fulfillment related features available out-of-the-box through the Fulfillment Module. A module is a standalone package that provides features for a single domain. Each of Medusa's commerce features are placed in Commerce Modules, such as this Fulfillment Module.

Support Different Fulfillment Forms: Support various fulfillment forms, such as shipping or pick up.
Tiered Pricing and Price Rules: Set prices for shipping options with tiers and rules, allowing you to create complex pricing strategies.

How to Use the Fulfillment Module

In your Medusa application, you build flows around Commerce Modules. A flow is built as a Workflow, which is a special function composed of a series of steps that guarantees data consistency and reliable roll-back mechanism.

You can build custom workflows and steps. You can also re-use Medusa's workflows and steps, which are provided by the @medusajs/medusa/core-flows package.

For example:

export const highlights = [ ["12", "Modules.FULFILLMENT", "Resolve the module in a step."] ]

import { 
  createWorkflow, 
  WorkflowResponse,
  createStep,
  StepResponse,
} from "@medusajs/framework/workflows-sdk"
import { Modules } from "@medusajs/framework/utils"

const createFulfillmentStep = createStep(
  "create-fulfillment",
  async ({}, { container }) => {
    const fulfillmentModuleService = container.resolve(Modules.FULFILLMENT)

    const fulfillment = await fulfillmentModuleService.createFulfillment({
      location_id: "loc_123",
      provider_id: "webshipper",
      delivery_address: {
        country_code: "us",
        city: "Strongsville",
        address_1: "18290 Royalton Rd",
      },
      items: [
        {
          title: "Shirt",
          sku: "SHIRT",
          quantity: 1,
          barcode: "123456",
        },
      ],
      labels: [],
      order: {},
    })

    return new StepResponse({ fulfillment }, fulfillment.id)
  },
  async (fulfillmentId, { container }) => {
    if (!fulfillmentId) {
      return
    }
    const fulfillmentModuleService = container.resolve(Modules.FULFILLMENT)

    await fulfillmentModuleService.deleteFulfillment(fulfillmentId)
  }
)

export const createFulfillmentWorkflow = createWorkflow(
  "create-fulfillment",
  () => {
    const { fulfillment } = createFulfillmentStep()

    return new WorkflowResponse({
      fulfillment,
    })
  }
)

You can then execute the workflow in your custom API routes, scheduled jobs, or subscribers:

import type {
  MedusaRequest,
  MedusaResponse,
} from "@medusajs/framework/http"
import { createFulfillmentWorkflow } from "../../workflows/create-fuilfillment"

export async function GET(
  req: MedusaRequest,
  res: MedusaResponse
) {
  const { result } = await createFulfillmentWorkflow(req.scope)
    .run()

  res.send(result)
}

</CodeTab> <CodeTab label="Subscriber" value="subscriber">

import {
  type SubscriberConfig,
  type SubscriberArgs,
} from "@medusajs/framework"
import { createFulfillmentWorkflow } from "../workflows/create-fuilfillment"

export default async function handleUserCreated({
  event: { data },
  container,
}: SubscriberArgs<{ id: string }>) {
  const { result } = await createFulfillmentWorkflow(container)
    .run()

  console.log(result)
}

export const config: SubscriberConfig = {
  event: "user.created",
}

</CodeTab> <CodeTab label="Scheduled Job" value="scheduled-job">

import { MedusaContainer } from "@medusajs/framework/types"
import { createFulfillmentWorkflow } from "../workflows/create-fuilfillment"

export default async function myCustomJob(
  container: MedusaContainer
) {
  const { result } = await createFulfillmentWorkflow(container)
    .run()

  console.log(result)
}

export const config = {
  name: "run-once-a-day",
  schedule: `0 0 * * *`,
}

</CodeTab> </CodeTabs>
